Di Maria, who joined Manchester United from Real Madrid in 2014, was handed the iconic no.7 shirt at Old Trafford. However, the winger failed to settle down and subsequently flattered to deceive with his performances on the pitch.
While Di Maria has always looked back at his Manchester United experience with distaste, the PSG star has now taken it up a notch with his recent comments. In a conversation with TyC Sports, Di Maria has lambasted Manchester United quite vehemently.
Di Maria further explained that former Manchester United boss Van Gaal was the main reason why he failed to succeed at Old Trafford. The 33-year-old went on to stress that Van Gaal was easily the worst manager he had played under in his career.
Since joining PSG from Manchester United in 2015, Di Maria has revived his career. The Argentine is currently gearing up for a promising Champions League campaign with PSG, who are buoyed by the signing of Lionel Messi.
Manchester United and PSG are contenders for the Champions League
The 2021-22 UEFA Champions League campaign is set to commence this month. With promising acquisitions over the course of the summer transfer window, both Manchester United and PSG are genuine contenders for continental glory.
While Manchester United are drawn alongside Atalanta, Villarreal and Young Boys in Group F of the competition, PSG are in Group A with Manchester City, Club Brugge and RB Leipzig.
It goes without saying that both Manchester United and PSG are expected to go through to the knockout stages. However, it remains to be seen whether they can produce the performances to fulfill their title ambitions in the knockout stages.
