3. Angel Di Maria
Though the Argentinian has stated that he want’s to stay with his current club, but having Isco, Mesut Ozil and Gareth Bale (soon) as company in a packed midfield could provide problems if he wants to get a regular run in the side ahead of next summer’s World Cup.
With Ronaldo operating on one flank, and Bale soon to be taking the other, there will be very little wiggle room for the former Benfica man to stake a claim for a starting spot, and there are already rumours that coach Carlo Ancelotti is making him available for transfer.
Real were never going to let both Ozil and Di Maria go on transfer deadline day, but there is still time for both player and club to change their minds.
Madrid have always been experts at hoarding some of the world’s finest talent and keeping them in and around the side just enough to frustrate them – just ask Wesley Sneijder and Arjen Robben. The Argentine could find his playing time very limited this year, and PSG will have enough money to ensure that he won’t feel that way for long.
There certainly wouldn’t be a shortage of club’s interested in Di Maria, and he could find himself playing in either England, Germany or Italy.
