The legendary former midfielder doesn't know how the Brazilian would slot into the starting line-up if he was to return to the club
Andres Iniesta wonders where Neymar would fit into Barcelona's team, while he thinks it would be "complicated" for them to appoint Jose Mourinho as coach.
"I don't know how the negotiations went or if Ney will arrive in the future, but he'll be an important piece," Iniesta told Marca.
"I don't know how they'd fit so many high-level players together."
While Mourinho has been touted for a return to Real Madrid as a successor to Zinedine Zidane, the suggestion the Portuguese could make a Camp Nou comeback, having initially worked as a translator under Bobby Robson, is not something Iniesta anticipates coming to fruition.
He said: "I'm not in the know on whether Mourinho could go to Madrid or not. To Barca, I see it as complicated."
Lionel Messi played a starring role in Barca's 5-1 victory over Real Valladolid on Tuesday.
The Argentina superstar has stated he does not want to sign a "lifetime contract" with the club and has a clause in his current deal that enables him to leave at the end of the season if he desires.
Asked if Messi's exit would see Barca encounter the same difficulties Madrid did following Cristiano Ronaldo's departure, Iniesta said: "It'll be difficult.
"But the clubs are above the players or coaches. That's how it is. Obviously, it'll be a shame, but it'll come."
Messi has recently spoken about a lifelong dream of playing for Newell's Old Boys in Argentina, though he admitted he wasn't sure if it would ever happen due to his family being settled in Barcelona.
Barca will look to stay at the top of the Spanish table on Saturday, as they travel to Levante.

please guys for me I like messi to sing life contract for Barca and that will help him and his family too, because with Barca he can still win more balloon Door for his future carriers but is depends the club director and management team if they want him to stay they have to give him good terms, once again is good for the club to sign neymar back to the club because when you play with neymar, messi, surese is like you have the father, the son and the holy spirit as you can see them before in 2014 and 2015 was the best team and if Barca won't they should throw Jose Mourinho out of their plans because he's not Barcelona material he doesn't have any good things for Barcelona team
