Marseille defender Souleymane Diawara has revealed that he is relishing the chance to come up against Zlatan Ibrahimovic tonight.
The 34-year-old could line up against the Paris Saint-Germain striker in the Coupe de France tie at Pac des Princes, and admitted that he is looking forward to the prospect.
"I like to face world-class players," Diawara told reporters.
"When you're defending and you have the chance to play against players like [Ibrahimovic] it sure is motivating.
"If I have the chance to play, for sure I will prepare, but I'm not going to do any special training just for Zlatan."
The two teams met in Ligue 1 last Sunday, with Carlo Ancelotti's side winning 2-0.
