Former Manchester United defender Gabriel Heinze has described Angel di Maria as being among the top four players in world football right now.
The 26-year-old has made an instant impact since making the move to Old Trafford from Real Madrid, recording three goals and three assists in his first five Premier League games.
It is the type of form which has led compatriot Heinze to compare Di Maria to the likes of Lionel Messi and former United great Cristiano Ronaldo among the world's best.
"Anything I can say about Angel Di Maria is not enough," the former Argentina international is quoted as saying by FourFourTwo.
"For me he is one the four best players of the world, he's at an amazing level and has now arrived at an amazing club, where they will look after him very well and he will perform very well."
Heinze spent three years at United before leaving the club in 2007 to join Spanish giants Madrid.
