PSG set to announce signing of Angel Di Maria

Football Express News understands that Paris Saint Germain are set to announce the signing of Real Madrid’s Angel Di Maria.

The Argentine attacking midfielder was in superb form for the Spanish giants last season and played a big part in helping them win the Champions League title, a tenth.

But, his time at the Santiago Bernabeu has been heavily discussed this summer with his allegiance to fellow countrymen Lionel Messi and Javier Mascherano, who play for Barcelona, having not gone down well with Madrid officials.

Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal have all been linked with a lucrative bid having been tipped, but it is understood that French champions Paris Saint Germain are set to announce the signing of the former Benfica man.

PSG are under strict rules by the Financial Fair Play system at present, but it is understood that the Argentine international will arrive on an initial loan move, much like Ivorian defender Serge Aurier did earlier this week.

Di Maria has agreed a £120,000 per week contract and is expected to link up with his new team-mates in the coming days.
