Angel Di Maria enjoys Lionel Messi every day in the dressing room of the Parisian club is an honor and a pride, he assured. "I was missing the icing on the cake of playing with him at a club, because I had the chance to have great teammates throughout my career. At the time I had the chance to go to Barcelona, but today I am happy to be able to see what he does every day", he revealed.

"We are the two of us who arrive at training first. Normally he arrives a few minutes early and then he arrives for breakfast and some mates," he continued about La Pulga's stay in Paris. And he went on to give details about the nickname he gave his friend: "I always called him Enano. Not at first, but when we got to know each other we did. As he calls me Fide, and I call him that and that's what I've been calling him for years and it will always stay the same".
