Juventus offer declining Angel Di Maria a one-year contract with his contract at PSG set to expire

Juventus have offered Angel Di Maria a one-year contract when his contract at PSG expires this summer. The Ligue 1 champions have refused to activate his renewal clause, and the 33-year-old Argentine attacker will leave this summer. Di Maria spent the last seven years at Parc des Princes after they signed him from Manchester United for €52 million in August 2015. The former Real Madrid and Benfica star is now available for free and Juventus love their free bargains. Can the Bianconeri extract one more year of magic from the Copa America champion? They did from Dani Alves, so why can’t repeat the trick?

Di Maria has scored 91 goals and assisted 117 assists in 291 appearances for the capital club. He has also won five Ligue 1 titles, adding to his trophy haul. Di Maria was a contributing part of this PSG team that just lumbered to the title under Mauricio Pochettino. He would have loved to stay in Paris, where his family is settled, but PSG does not want to renew. Juventus have contacted his reps to negotiate a short-term contract. It will be interesting to see where El Fideo ends up next.
