PSG stated, “Paris Saint-Germain is delighted to announce that Angel Di Maria has signed a one-year contract extension.”

As revealed by the player, the contract will keep the former Manchester United winger until 2022.  Also, it has a one-year optional extension.

Di Maria revealed, “First and foremost, I am very happy! I am very happy to have been able to extend my adventure with Paris Saint-Germain for another year, with an additional year as an option.”

He stated, “I think that it’s something that is very important for me.”

“I have always said that I am very happy in Paris, and my family is too. My daughters love Paris, their school, their friends. My desire was therefore to continue here because I feel good at the club and in this city,” he said.

“If I have renewed my contract, it’s also because the club is happy with me, and equally because the coach is happy. I hope to be able to make my name in the club’s history,” Di Maria added.

Di Maria has notably made a mark on the Parisian side. He has Registered 99 assists, poisoned to land at a 100th assist landmark.

Therefore Di Maria is on the brink of breaking the Safet Susic 103 assists record. That means he has only one to do that should he not opt to extend the optional clause in his contract.

“I have been a bit anxious in recent matches as I try to reach 100 assists! It’s something that is very important for me. Then I will look to overtake Safet Susic’s 103 assists, which is the current club record.

“It would be very important because it would remain in the club’s history books.

“It would be written forever until another player has the opportunity to overtake me and take his turn to make history.

“I hope that this extension will allow me to reach these targets,” the former Real Madrid player concluded.
