Angel di Maria, the famous Argentina international and former Real Madrid winger, has talked about Lionel Messi.
He revealed that playing alongside compatriot Lionel Messi at Argentina national team and Paris Saint-Germain is the best thing that has happened in his glittering career so far.
Di Maria, 35, played just a season with Messi during their time together at PSG.
However, the former Manchester United and Juventus star lacked regular playing time in the 2021-2022 season.
Di Maria started 22 out of 31 matches across competitions for the French Ligue 1 champions.
“The best thing that happened in my career is that I played with Leo Messi [Lionel Messi] in the national team and club,” Di Maria said (via Albiceleste Talk).
He added, “I participated with him [Messi] for a year in the club and did not play. I knew that if he came I wouldn’t play much.”
Di Maria is close to joining Benfica after departing Juventus as a free agent this summer, while Messi will join MLS side Inter Miami when his contract with PSG expires at the end of this month.
