Yesterday, PSG manager Laurent Blanc distanced his club from signing Di Maria and said that due to financial fair play restrictions it is highly unlikely that the Argentinian winger will be swapping the capital of Spain for the capital of France.
Although admitting an interest in Di Maria, Blanc told L’Equipe that, “PSG can not do what he (Di Maria) wants in terms of recruitment because of financial fair play. This is a difficult issue the president has confirmed to me”
With PSG seemingly out of the race for his signature, United are now clear favourites to sign the Real Madrid starlet.
