AC Milan hero Alessandro Nesta says Brahim Diaz faces a massive career decision this summer.

Brahim was superb for last night's Champions League quarterfinal first-leg win against Napoli.

The midfielder is on-loan at Milan from Real Madrid, with a decision on his future due at the end of the season.

"I've always been in favor of his presence on the pitch, I like him a lot," said Nesta.

"Today he did a lot well and then he has a very big problem that awaits him at the end of the year: he has to choose between Milan and Real Madrid... it's in his heart."
