After weeks of negotiations, PSG can finally say that they convinced one of their biggest stars to sign a contract extension for one more season.
PSG finally convinced one of their biggest stars to sign that contract extension, but it may not be who you think it is. While supporters at the French capital expect news from Neymar and Kylian Mbappe’s futures, they closed another important deal. We are talking about Angel Di Maria, the Argentine winger who is massively underrated. During his time at the club, he already provided 99 assists and is four away from the club’s all-time record held by Safet Susic.
‘Fideo’ decided to sign a contract for one more season with the same wage he already had, plus a one-year extension chance. This is excellent news for a club that is trying to keep their biggest stars at the club, especially with everything that’s about to happen. Nobody knows what the future will hold for some of PSG’s biggest players, but they can rest easy knowing Di Maria is safe.
PSG’s Di Maria announcement in full.
This is what PSG wrote on their official website: “Paris Saint-Germain is delighted to announce that Angel Di Maria has signed a one-year contract extension, with an option of a second year. Since August 2015, the 33-year-old has made 248 appearances for the Rouge & Bleu, scoring 87 goals and making 99 assists while playing a key role in the club’s success over recent seasons. The left-footed Argentine has notched up 16 trophies so far for the Parisian club: four Ligue 1 titles (2016, 2018, 2019 and 2020), four Coupes de la Ligue (2016, 2017, 2018 and 2020), four Coupes de France (2016, 2017, 2018 and 2020), and four Trophées des Champions (2016, 2018, 2019 and 2020).
“The midfielder has the second-most assists in the history of Paris Saint-Germain, setting up 99 goals for his teammates just behind Safet Susic’s total of 103. “Fideo” is also the eighth-highest scorer (87 goals) in the history of the Rouge & Bleu. The Rosario-born player has also picked up 104 caps and scored 20 goals for “La Albiceleste”, the Argentina national team.”
