Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti says Sergio Ramos is allowed to celebrate anyway he wants if he scores against Los Blancos on Saturday evening.
Los Blancos will come up against a familiar face on Saturday evening as they look to cement top spot in LaLiga.
Ramos spent most of his career with Los Blancos after leaving Sevilla in 2005 and went on to establish himself as one of the club's greatest-ever players and Ancelotti says he owes a lot to the defender.

"I'd love to see [Ramos] and say hello," Ancelotti told reporters, as per Goal.
"I have affection for all the players I've had, but above all I have special affection for him.
"If I'm here today it's because of Sergio Ramos. If he hadn't scored the goal in the [Champions League] final, I probably wouldn't be here.
"For that, and for everything he did for this club, everybody has a lot of affection for him... He'll play well for sure. Let's hope he doesn't score but if he does, he can [celebrate] however he wants!"
Ancelotti was also quizzed about his future at the Santiago Bernabeu amid the links with the Brazil national side.
"As I've often said, I'm very happy at Real Madrid. I'll stop there," he said when asked if he'd like to renew his contract.
"You made it difficult for me with that question! Would I like to renew or not? I don't talk about my future."
