So Angel di Maria’s reason for leaving his former club, Real Madrid was all about more bucks. Speaking on the Argentine’s exit, Real Madrid manager, Carlo Ancelotti confirmed that he left for Manchester United when the club could not meet his huge pay-packet demands.
The former Chelsea manager told Cadena COPE, “Di Maria? I was in agreement with the club. There are times when the club needs to say no. You can’t change the policies of the club for one player. Di Maria asked for a lot of money and preferred to leave to go find it. The club couldn’t give him the money he wanted. They say that I’m the manager of the club; of course, I coach for the club, not for the players.”
Di Maria joined The Red Devils few months back on a British record of £59.7million after a four-year stay at Santiago Bernabeu.
