Ancelotti: Di Maria still a Real Madrid player

Carlo Ancelotti has shrugged off speculation linking Angel Di Maria with a move away from the Santiago Bernabeu, pointing out that the winger is still a Real Madrid player. Having already signed Toni Kroos and James Rodriguez for a combined €110 million, Los Blancos are willing to offload Di Maria in order to fund a move for Monaco striker Radamel Falcao. Ancelotti, though, is believed to be keen to keep the Argentina international and has now admitted that the 26-year-old is in his plans for the coming season, revealing that he is more concerned with new arrivals than potential departures. "Di Maria? He is a Real Madrid player," the Italian coach told Corriere dello Sport. “The club is doing very well on the transfer market and I think will continue until the last available day. “The two new arrivals will certainly be of help. I think the current squad is already more competitive than last season.” Di Maria, who joined Madrid from Benfica in 2010, is being tracked by Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain.
