According to Angel Di Maria’s agent, the Argentinian is heading to Manchester United despite interest from Arsenal and Chelsea. The winger has been linked with a move away from Real Madrid after a fine campaign last season, because of the Galacticos move for James Rodriguez.
Madrid president Florentino Perez is believed to be open to offers in the region of £40m, but because of his World Cup performances, his value is expected to rise. Now, Man United look set to make an offer for the player.
According to Spanish reports, Jorge Mendes, the player’s agent, believes Di Maria will join the Old Trafford side this summer. New boss Louis Van Gaal hasn’t wasted much time adding to the squad, with two deals for Ander Herrera and Luke Shaw completed already for a combined £60m.
The 26-year old is feeling undervalued at Real and he has previously revealed that he will make a decision on his future after the World Cup. Arsenal and Chelsea were both interested as well, but if his agent is correct, then Di Maria will reject those two clubs and sign on for the Red Devils.
