The Argentine international is still under contract with reigning European champions until 2018, but has admitted that anything could happen when the transfer windows are open.
But though he has insisted that his immediate focus is on making a good showing with Argentina during their World Cup campaign this summer, he has not given much thought to where his future lies following the tournament.
Di Maria has, however, been linked with several Premier League clubs and Real’s resolve to keep a player who helped them to a 10th European Cup triumph in 2013/14 may be tested over the coming months.
“I am not going to lie, I know that there are clubs that want to sign me and can match Real Madrid’s demands. But that’s up to my representatives and the club,” he said.
“I will stay if the club wants me to stay.
“I am not thinking about my future now. We will see what Madrid have in mind, whether they want me to stay or leave.
“I am happy at Madrid. I had a great season and always had everybody’s support. But sometimes you don’t have a choice, even when you want to stay yourself.”
“Many things have been said about me. Sometimes it hurts when you see all the rumours that you are leaving. These are difficult moments for a player. I remained calm, though.
“I spoke with Ancelotti last summer. I wanted to stay and he wanted me to stay as well. He told me that he counted on me and it was up to me from then on.
“I have grown a lot under Ancelotti. He got the best out of me. Things have gone well and I made the right decision to stay.”
