The Argentine world champion seeks redemption after the "strange" vintage in bianconero: the details of the contract and the background
Between a drink and another at the Pacha in Ibiza with Paulo Dybala and their respective companions, Angel Di Maria has never lost sight of her professional future. After greeting Juve without particular regrets, even from the Bianconeri environment, the Fideo world champion has always said he wanted to continue at least for another season in Europe before, possibly, to close his career in his Rosario Central, also in view of the America's Cup 2024. Said, done: here is the official return to Benfica defending champion of Portugal, who celebrated the 38th Scudetto in the spring.
A year in Lisbon, so...
"Welcome Home, Di Maria!": thus, with a nice "Welcome home", Benfica made official the deal made, of course at no cost due to the 35-year-old's free regime, while the Argentine and former Juventus-old signed an annual contract. I sanctioned, therefore, the return of the champion to Lisbon, shore Aguias, thirteen years old, 124 games and 15 goals later. A big blow for coach Roger Schmidt.
