For a year, until the end of the 2018 World Cup, Jorge Sampaoli led Angel Di Maria in the Argentina selection.
And the PSG striker does not have good memories of the current OM coach.
In an interview with the Argentinian media TyC Sports, “el Fideo” dressed the irascible technician for the coming winter.
"Sampaoli me dijo cosas que después no eran así. Me trataba como si fuese uno de los mejores y después me limpió en el Mundial sin darme explicaciones. Es una persona muy rara"

The "wof" pushed by the player during the journalist's question already foreshadowed what was to follow.
"I do not know what I can tell you, but the truth is that it started very well and that it ended very badly", released the Parisian, focusing on the Russian World Cup, prematurely ended by the Albiceleste in the round of 16 against France (4-3, with a superb goal from Di Maria).
See you around October 24
“He treated me like I was one of the best, and after just one game he leaves me on the bench, he pushes me aside like nothing has happened, with no explanation.
»After having detailed the competition until elimination, Di Maria more generally judged the personality of Sampaoli.
“He's a very weird person.
It started well with everyone and it ended badly with everyone.
By the way, the next OM-PSG is the weekend of October 24.
