Atlético de Madrid would have rejected the Di Maria option

Free to engage with the club of his choice since his departure from PSG, Angel Di Maria could have bounced back with the Colchoneros. According to Marca, the winger has been offered to Atlético de Madrid. Despite the qualities of the Argentinian, this option was rejected by the Spanish club.

After seven years at PSG, Angel Di Maria (34) will have to find a new base. If the name of Juventus often comes up on the table, nothing has yet been announced and its agents continue to offer their foal to certain clubs, including Atlético de Madrid.

According to Marca, the winger was offered to the Colchoneros. Having played four seasons at Real Madrid, the Argentinian would have had no problem adapting to Spain, but the third in La Liga does not intend to go far in this matter. The Spanish newspaper explains that despite the recognized qualities of the player, many parameters play against Di Maria.

Juventus in pole position

Sporting director Andrea Berta would consider that the player’s advanced age and salary make the operation not worth pursuing to completion. In addition, the signing of left winger Samuel Lino (22) would have pushed the Spanish club to bet on the future.

Despite this refusal, the best passer in the history of PSG (118) should soon find another upscale formation. As confirmed by RMC Sport a few days ago, the one who has his sights set on the 2022 World Cup should soon join Juventus Turin. A contract of one season with another in option is evoked.
