His decision is final Angel Di Maria to withdraw from Argentina national team!
Through a post on social media, the now 35-year-old midfielder announced that in the upcoming Copa America, which will be held next summer in the USA, will wear the “albiseleste” shirt for the last time.
“Well, the last qualifier has arrived for me. I can’t express in words how much the applause of the world fills my soul lately, I enjoy every second of this affection shown to me by my teammates. They are my family, without them the story wouldn’t have the same meaning. Their love made me who I am today.
We cannot forget the unpleasant events that occurred in the match against Brazil, nobody deserves this treatment, the beatings, the scared children in the middle of a pitch where all that had to happen was to enjoy the game. I hope this doesn’t happen again.
The Copa America will be the last time I will wear the jersey of the Argentine national team. I say goodbye to the most beautiful thing that happened in my career, with all the pain in my soul and feeling a knot in my throat. I wore this shirt with pride. I thank the fans, my friends, my teammates, we continue to make history and what we achieve will remain unforgettable in eternity. Let’s go Argentina!”he said in his post.
Di Maria made his international debut in 2008 and has since made 136 appearances for Argentina, scoring 29 times and winning the 2022 World Cup and 2021 Copa América with them.
