Dimas Delgado is relishing the prospect of making his league debut for Numancia at the weekend against his former club Barcelona in Los Parajitos.
The Catalan midfielder was expected to push for a first team place with the Blaugrana this season, but instead chose to leave the club where he rose through the youth ranks.Numancia's promise of regular first team football was too difficult to resist and Dimas wants to prove himself because Barça do have a buy-back clause.
On Sunday, he plays in his first official game for the Soria outfit and thinks that coming up against several of his former team-mates in the Barcleona team will make it a special occasion.
"It gives added motivation," he said, before stating that he hopes his former Barça B coach, Pep Guardiola, succeeds at the helm.
"If there someone qualified to coach Barça then that is Pep Guardiola because he knows the club inside out."
Finally, Dimas stated that the visitors will not find it easy at the weekend because Numancia's modest stadium will be full and the fans will create a lot of noise.
"It will be very important for us to achieve a result and Barça may not be comfortable because of the atmosphere that will be created," he added.
