Di Maria: I hope that PSG will be my last club in Europe

Angel Di Maria has revealed he would like to return to Argentina before the end of his career, but he hopes Paris Saint-Germain will be his "last club in Europe".

The ex-Madrid star began his professional career with Rosario Central in Argentina, and he wants to go back to his homeland at some point. But for now, he is remaining "calm" over his future.

“For the moment, there are no discussions (about an extension)," he told a press conference on Friday. "I have another 1.5 years on my current contract, I am staying calm.

"I have been saying it from the first day. I hope that PSG will be my last club in Europe, then I will return to play in Argentina.”

Di Maria will be back in contention for a place in Thomas Tuchel's line up when PSG take in a trip to Lille on Sunday.

The Parisians have been quiet in the transfer market this month, but Goal has learned that they are closing in on a swap deal for full-backs Mattia De Sciglio and Layvin Kurzawa - with negotiations now at an advanced stage.

Edinson Cavani could follow Kurzawa out the Parc Des Princes exit door before the winter transfer deadline, with a number of top clubs thought to be chasing his signature.

The Uruguayan is due to become a free agent at the end of the season, but Chelsea have enquired about a possible loan deal and Atletico Madrid are reportedly lining up a bid in excess of €10 million ($11m/£8m).

Speaking about the future of his team-mate Cavani, Di Maria said: "I think Edi is a player of the club. And for his future? It's between the club and him.

"The most important thing is that everyone is happy."
