Angel Di Maria is arguably one of the best play-makers in the world and he earned that tag during his time with Real Madrid. He played with the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale, Mesut Ozil and Karim Benzema and was highly successful with them.

He scored 36 goals and assisted 85 in 190 games for Real Madrid. He won the La Liga, Copa del Rey and Champions League with the Spanish club.

He had a poor time at Manchester United before rediscovering his form at PSG. He has scored 72 times and assisted 70 goals in 185 games. He has won the Ligue 1 and French Cup thrice. Along with Neymar, Kylian Mbappe and Edinson Cavani, he has been phenomenal in France's domestic competitions, but they have faltered in the Champions League every single year.

This season, they will look to go all the way in the Champions League and Di Maria will be crucial to their chances.
