Inter Miami could soon boast a World Cup-winning duo from Qatar 2022 if the rumors hold true and Ángel Di María joins the club to play alongside his friend and Argentine national team colleague, Lionel Messi.
The future of "El Fideo" is the talk of the town in South America, as many believed his departure from Europe would lead to a return to Rosario Central. However, it seems the story may take a dramatic turn.
According to various sources, the current Benfica forward and the South Florida franchise have reached a financial agreement. The only question remaining is whether he will join after the upcoming Copa América or in January 2025.
In fact, Gerardo Martino, head coach of "The Herons," commented on the matter a few weeks ago: "There's no need to discuss his footballing qualities. He's a seasoned player, but I can't say anything about how the deal might materialize. There are still two months before the transfer window opens. It would be disrespectful for me to give approval for someone of his caliber."
Having previously played for major clubs like Real Madrid, Manchester United, and Paris Saint-Germain, Di María would join other well-known faces from Europe at Inter Miami: Uruguay's Luis Suárez and Spain's Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets.
Inter Miami would become the seventh club in the career of the forward born on February 14, 1988, who also donned the jersey of Juventus in Italy's Serie A.
The experienced striker announced he would wear the Argentinian jersey for the last time at the Copa América, set to be held in various stadiums across the United States from June 21 to July 15. Argentina will be defending the title they won in 2021, when "El Fideo" scored the winning goal in the final against Brazil.
His trophy cabinet includes league championships with Real Madrid, PSG, and Benfica, as well as a UEFA Champions League and a UEFA Super Cup. He also boasts an Olympic gold medal from the 2008 Beijing Games and the ultimate prize: the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
