Liga : Zlatan Ibrahimovic (FC Barcelona)
Barcelona striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has revealed that he is looking forward to playing in the much anticipated showdown between the Primera Division champions and bitter rivals Real Madrid.

The two giants of Spanish football are just one domestic fixture away from the November 29 meeting at Camp Nou and 'Ibra' says the game has a global appeal.

"It will be something fantastic, not only for the Spanish fans, but for everyone. I'm looking forward to playing this game," he said, according to Sport.

The Swedish striker has suggested that things are not going well for Los Blancos at present, but indicates they have the potential to become a great side.

"I do not follow the other games much, I have enough to play. If you look at the results it is clear that things in Madrid are not going perfectly. But it is a new project. It takes time to form a group and they have potential to be a great team," he remarked.
