Fans Juve seems to have run out of patience with Angel Di Maria. The Argentine winger was criticized for joining the club just to get a big paycheck.
Di Maria was brought on a free transfer by Juventus after the signing of his contract Paris Saint Germain finished. Di Maria’s presence should sharpen the Turin club’s attacking line.
Because Juventus cannot be strengthened by Federico Chiesa who is recovering from a knee ligament injury. Di Maria’s experience is said to help Juventus compete in Europe.
However, the reality so far is not as expected. Di Maria was mostly injured and made just seven appearances with one goal and four assists.
Having 333 minutes to play, Di Maria means the average appearance doesn’t exceed 50 minutes! With a salary of 7.7 million euros per year, this is obviously not the expected contribution.
With Juventus fluctuating and risking not to qualify for the Champions League round of 16, Di Maria was in the spotlight of the Juventus fans. They began to get impatient with Di Maria who was considered to be spending the club’s money with only a large salary, but a minimal contribution.
It is assumed that Di Maria is alone “on vacation” in Turin before competing in the 2022 World Cup with the Argentine national team. Di Maria’s upload related to the Argentine national team ad on his Instagram account became the target of angry fans.
“You just want a vacation in Turin and take 7 million euros, just to play twice in full for three months,” a fan said in the comment column of Di Maria’s post.
“You are parasitic like Ramsey.”
“Please don’t come back here after the World Cup, we don’t need a selfish player like you. Earn 23 thousand euros per minute, almost as much as an Italian earns in two years!”.
Luckily Angel Di Maria one year contract. He imagines that if he only had a two-year contract, he could make Juventus fans even more grumpy.
