Ángel Di María has had a rich football career. He has played for famous clubs such as Real Madrid, Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain. He wanted to finish his long journey at his hometown Rosario, but due to threats from fans, he will not be joining the club.
- Ángel Di María wanted to end his career at Benfica after his stint at parent club Rosario
- Fans have threatened him and his family with death, so he will not start in Argentina
- It is now possible that Di María will sign another one-year contract at Lisbon
He wanted to go back to where it all began. It was in Rosario, Argentina, where Ángel Di María grew up and began his rich footballing journey.
A move to Benfica followed, where in three years he played 121 games with a record of 15+28 and won the championship title, plus the domestic cup. His great performances on the pitch were noticed by Real Madrid. The royal club snapped him up from Benfica for €33 million in July 2010, and it was in Spain that he had one of the best periods of his career.
The statistics and team achievements simply speak for themselves. 190 competitive matches, a record of 36+85, winner of the Champions League, La Liga, UEFA Super Cup or Copa del Rey twice. Moreover, in 2014 he was named the best Argentine footballer of the year.
His subsequent transfer to Manchester United failed for a number of reasons. At PSG, however, it was a ride again. Di María then returned to Turin, where he subsequently wandered to where his spectacular European stint began. Benfica Lisbon.
However, he left the Portuguese club at the beginning of this July and became a free agent. He wanted to finish his career in his home town Rosario, but it will not happen.
Di María will not end his career at Rosario
However, it is the fans themselves who are against it, who have issued death threats not only to the Argentine international but also to his family. “Someone put a box in front of my sister’s shop with a pig’s head and a bullet in the forehead. There was a note saying that if I returned to Rosario, my daughter Pia’s head would be there next time,” said the 36-year-old winger.
So he will not start his career in Rosario. He simply doesn’t want to allow his family to be threatened in such a way. It is not impossible that Di María will sign another one-year contract at Benfica.
