A few months ago, Gremio de Porto Alegre tried to hire Ángel Di María. Vice president Antônio Brum confirmed that they contacted the representative of the world champion and the response was forceful: “If he returned to South America, it would be to Rosario Central.”

The manager of the historic Porto Alegre team commented in dialogue with Um Assado Para: “We thought we were going to lose Luis Suárez. There were ups and downs in that negotiation. And then we went looking for a replacement, someone who might deliver technically and who had a great name for the marketing project.”
In that sense, Brum clarified: “At that time, Di María was free and we did indeed get in touch. We heard his representative say that if he returned to South America, it would be to Rosario Central. With us there is nothing, we do not create false expectations. “I would be surprised to see this player in Brazil.”
That contact was when Fideo had just left Juventus. Finally, the man with the important goals in the Argentine National Team decided to return to Benfica in Portugal and everything indicates that in July 2024, following the Copa América, he would arrive free to the club of his loves to wear the Canalla shirt at the Gigante de Little stream.

Everything ready for the arrival of Di María
If he considers it so, Ángel Di María is in a position to begin negotiating his departure from Benfica as a free agent. His relationship with the Portuguese club ends in the middle of this year, so he is able to speak with other clubs to define his future. In Rosario Central they know it and anxiety is through the roof.
“President Gonzalo Belloso’s idea was always to have a club prepared for when (Di María) comes. Put Central in the place it should be and improve. We have the stadium, there are also works in the sports city. All these movements mean that we are growing,” said Miguel Ángel Russo, coach of Canalla.
Unlike what happened following the World Cup, where the leaders took a more leading stance to convince him, the Rosario institution is aware that pressuring him with the idea of returning might be counterproductive. The one who has the ball and will have to define his immediate future is Di María himself.
