(GSM) – Benfica winger Angel Di Maria is not going to Real Madrid yet, say sources close to the Argentina international. Contrary to an earlier report in the Daily Mail, the Argentine is yet to finalize a deal that will see him move to the Santiago Bernabeu next season.
Sources close to the winger have denied that Di Maria is set to move to Madrid in the summer. The 22-year-old winger has attracted a host of top European clubs including the Manchester clubs and Chelsea.
However, a move to Real Madrid is now looking likely with Argentinian newspaper Ole reporting that a pre-contract agreement has been reached and the player will move in the summer for a transfer fee of around €35million.
Benfica’s signing of winger Nicolas Gaitan from Boca Juniors added fuel to fire as the latter is seen as a direct replacement for Di Maria.
