DBasia.news – Angel Di Maria said that he always wanted to play with Lionel Messi at the same club. As a result, he wants to do his best not to leave PSG if Messi does move to the club in the French capital.
Messi is rumored to be leaving Barcelona as soon as his contract expires in the summer. Even though they have not made a decision, La Pulga’s chances of surviving at the Camp Nou are very small.
No wonder the big European clubs began to wriggle to get Messi’s signature. Apart from PSG, there is Manchester City who are also ready to give him a tantalizing offer.
Di Maria actually often has a duet with Messi in the Argentina national team. But the chance to become a teammate of the superstar at club level will perfect his career.
“I’ve played with Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar, Kylian Mbappe. If I can also play with Leo, I can retire happily after that! ”Di Maria told TyC Sports.
“That will be for the best. I can’t ask for anything more in football.”
Di Maria actually had the opportunity to have a duet with Messi at club level a few seasons ago. But he refused to move to Barcelona because he felt comfortable at PSG.
The problem is, Di Maria’s contract with PSG will also end in the summer. Messi’s move to France would have been meaningless had he not received a contract extension.
“I can say that there are other opportunities to play with him but my contract will end soon and I don’t know what will happen. There is a new coaching staff, so I’m just focused on impressing them,” he added.
Even though he is 32 years old, Di Maria’s role is still very important for PSG. Mauricio Pochettino is very likely to still need his strength next season.
