Paris Saint-Germain winger Angel Di Maria tried to persuade Lionel Messi to come to the team after announcing his intention to leave Barcelona.
“I was really excited about that idea,” Di María told Radio Continental Argentina.
“I sent Messi a photo of many people’s comments on how he would play against Paris Saint-Germain if he joined the team,” he said.
“Messi just smiled without saying anything, it was a difficult moment for him,” he revealed.
And Messi decided to complete his end-of-season contract with Barcelona so as not to provoke resorting to tracks against his club.
Di María explained: “Messi made the right decision in his heart. He respects the club and does not want to hurt him, and he deserves that everyone raises their hats for him.”
“Barcelona gave everything to Messi, and Messi also gave everything to this club,” he stressed.
Messi expressed his desire to leave Barcelona after a zero season, which ended with an 8-2 loss to Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
“I think Mbappé is the best after Messi,” Di María said. “He has special abilities that we don’t see in other players.”
“I think that Mbappé will be the new Messi for his quality, speed of movement and ability to get rid of the rival,” he revealed.
Regarding the comparison between Messi and Ronaldo, he said: “The Portuguese player is a monster in training. He works from training to the field and practices everything from fitness, speed and headshots. This difference between him and Messi is a completely natural person. “
He concluded his comments: “There is no hatred between the duo, they both play in clubs with each other, it is wonderful to compete for the Golden Ball and the Champions League.
