Busquets arrived in Barcelona’s first team in July 2008 and eventually made a name for himself in a relatively short period of time. He reached the Spain national team less than one year after making his senior club debut.
Busquets helped Spain win the 2010 World Cup and the Euro 2012 tournaments. He also represented the nation at two other World Cups and Euro 2016.
On 11 October 2008, Busquets earned his first cap for Spain’s under-21 in their 2009 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship qualification play-offs first-leg away match against Switzerland. He scored in the 17th minute of a 1–2 loss though they eventually emerged victorious 4–3 on aggregate.
