Angel Di Maria vacates PSG this season

By Muhammad Sabiu

Angel Di Maria, a winger for Paris-Saint-Germain, is scheduled to depart the French Ligue 1 club at the end of the season.

PSG will not give Di Maria a new contract in the summer, according to L’Equipe (as relayed by AS), allowing the Argentine to depart for free.

PSG’s current contract with Di Maria will expire at the end of the season.

PSG is yet to offer the former Manchester United player a new deal.

The 34-year-old moved to PSG from Manchester United in 2015 for a reported £56.7 million.

Di Maria’s playing time has been severely curtailed as his current manager, Mauricio Pochettino, continues to favour players like Neymar.
