adminParis St-Germain have completed the signing of Manchester United midfielder Angel Di Maria for a fee of £44.3m.
The Argentina international leaves United just a year after they paid Real Madrid a British record £59.7m for him. Di Maria, 27, has signed a four-year deal with the French champions after undergoing a medical in Qatar on Tuesday.
“I’m very proud and I can’t wait to wear the colours of Paris St-Germain,” he said.
Di Maria failed to join United on their pre-season tour of America last month, and manager Louis van Gaal had said he “didn’t know why”.
The former Benfica winger made a strong start to his Old Trafford career, with a goal and an assist in three of his first four games.
But after being played in six different positions, including central midfield and striker, a pelvic injury kept him out for the whole of December 2014.
A Champions League winner with Real, Di Maria will be competing with Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Edinson Cavani and Ezequiel Lavezzi for a starting place at PSG.
“I want to win the Champions League, which is a dream for all footballers, for a second time,” he said. – BBC Sport.
