Angel di Maria transfer confirmed by PSG as Manchester United flop finally completes £44m move



Angel di Maria has finally been confirmed as a Paris Saint-Germain player after the French giants bid the Argentine winger 'bienvenido' (welcome) on their official Twitter account.

The Argentinian completed what has been a drawn-out £44.3million move from Old Trafford and is set to be unveiled at a press conference at 5.30pm on Thursday.
