Ángel Di María ends his contract with Benfica next summer, and there has been some news about a return to Rosario Central, in Argentina.
Now, when asked about the future of the Argentine international, Roger Schmidt did not give a concrete answer, but praised his decision to return to the Eagles.
«We are preparing everything. Everything happens behind the scenes and this also depends on the players. I’m very happy to have Ángel here, I liked his decision to return to Benfica. Many other players made different decisions in this situation, some went to Saudi Arabia, but he chose to return and I loved that decision,” he said at a press conference.
«Even when he arrived, I knew him very well, but I was very surprised by his quality and mentality. He’s a fantastic player, he’s a key player and he’s back to his best form after his injury. We are very happy, and we will enjoy every training session and every game with him. At the end of the season we will see if he was happy enough to stay another year or if he wants to enjoy other things », he added.
Rafa and Chiquinho also end their contract at the end of this season: «These things happen behind the scenes. I want to keep all the players. When the transfer window opens, it’s normal to think about adjustments, it’s normal, but these things happen behind the scenes. My job is to be completely focused on the games, if anything will happen in the winter, I don’t know.”
