Angel Di Maria and Lionel Messi have just won together one of the most important titles of their careers with the Copa América.
And now they are also reunited at Paris Saint-Germain thanks to the signing of the six-fold Ballon d'Or.
A chance for PSG but also a source of additional pressure according to Fideo, as he explained in an interview for the ESPN channel.
“The pressure is more important now, with the arrival of Leo.
It is clear that the Champions League is the main objective, even more than before, ”said the Argentinian, finalist of the C1 in 2020 with PSG, who also had a thought for his coach.
"It's not going to be easy for (Mauricio) Pochettino to compose the team," added the 33-year-old midfielder, recent Copa América winner with Argentina, led by Messi.
"A dream" to share the locker room with Messi
“Sharing the locker room with Messi is something unique, a dream for me,” enthused Di Maria, sole scorer in the continental final against Brazil.
"All my dreams have come true: in a month, I won the Copa (America) and I will play with Messi," he concluded.
PSG welcomes Strasbourg on Saturday for the second day of Ligue 1, a priori without Messi, who needs, by his own admission, "physical preparation".
