At 37, Ángel Di María, former winger of Paris Saint-Germain, opened up to the Argentine media DS Sports about his years in Paris. The Argentine spoke about the magic of a locker room filled with stars like Ibrahimović, Cavani, Mbappé, Messi, and Neymar, and praised the love the club always showed him.
"I felt like I was in a PlayStation. Ibrahimovic, Cavani, Mbappé, Messi, Neymar, it was incredible to be there. I was happy when they won the Champions League. We were close. The club always loved us."
Between 2015 and 2022, Di María embodied the technical refinement of a galactic PSG, sometimes too focused on individualities. Amidst Messi, Neymar, or Mbappé, the Argentine genius often shone in the shadows, a catalyst for a spectacular but unbalanced game. If Paris never conquered Europe during that time, it might be because this dazzling collective lacked the coherence that Luis Enrique has managed to instill since his arrival.
In the current PSG, more collective, more intense, Di María would have found an ideal setting: high pressing, fluid play, well-channeled creative freedoms. His sense of rhythm and vision would have worked wonders in this well-oiled machine. What PSG gained in structure, he would have elevated with inspiration.
