“I do not think I am the MVP. I feel that what will make me happy is to lift the trophy.
“In football everything is relative; it does not matter who stars and who does not. [Claudio] Marchisio has had a good tournament, [Andrea] Pirlo also.
“I do not know [who the MVP should be] and I really do not care.”
Iniesta went on to discuss his new club team-mate Jordi Alba, who had a deal to join the Camp Nou outfit from Valencia finalised this week - a transfer the midfielder feels is excellent business by the Catalan side.
"I congratulated him yesterday when I heard the news; he is a great reinforcement," he added.
“I know him well from the national team, he is a fast player who makes good decisions; he is a great signing,” Iniesta concluded.
