Paris Saint-Germain manager Laurent Blanc has tipped Angel di Maria to enjoy a positive display against his former club Real Madrid when the two teams meet in the Champions League.
The Argentine, who spent four seasons at Los Blancos, has not returned to the Bernabeu since departing the La Liga giants for Manchester United last summer.
"Angel will begin the match," he told reporters. "It will be a special event for him because he spent several seasons here.
"He is a player that has been enjoyed here. He should be ready, focused and have the right attitude to bring us what he can do.
"This would be a nice for him to realise a good performance here."
Di Maria helped Madrid to win the La Liga title and the Champions League during his spell at the club.
