ANGEL DI MARIA

I always need to clear up what I do. With everyone else, there is no problem, but with me, all hell is raised up.

I am working hard to keep making progress, to always improve.

It hurts when you're always doing your best for your club, and then you hear that you might be going to Tottenham.

I never said I wanted to leave Real Madrid. I never wanted that, but you have to move when they don't want you.

I am not going to lie: I know that there are clubs that want to sign me and can match Real Madrid's demands. But that's up to my representatives and the club. I will stay if the club wants me to stay.

Maybe the press in Spain do not like me because I do not give interviews.

For sure, life takes many twists and turns, and one never knows what the future might hold.

Making passes is what I prefer the most.

Losing one final, that happens, but when it happens three times in a row, that is something else entirely.

If you change, it's because you want to. I will never change, and I never could change because the people around me are the same people who have always been there. My friends are the same, and that means you can never forget where you came from.

I love playing, helping the team, and not talking with the press.

I have these amazing feelings about having moved to Man U. I'm so proud of myself, you know. It's hard to explain it and put it into words.

I wished very much for the day of my debut at Old Trafford, and I did in the best way, scoring a goal.

I want to win the Champions League, which is a dream for all footballers, for a second time.

There were a lot of clubs interested in me, but United is the only club that I would have left Real Madrid for.

The problem is that when Argentina doesn't play well - and the same is true of Barcelona - the press think it is easy to blame Messi. We have seen time and time again that he wins games on his own when the team is not performing - but the media expect him to always be the hero.

What I love the most is playing with Argentina.

I am happy at Madrid.

In 2017, I was able to spend time with my family in Argentina, recharge my batteries, think about what had been achieved - I needed to change something to be better. I managed to score goals, make more assists: that is the important thing.

I am very happy to have extended my contract with PSG.

Cristiano Ronaldo's a special player, but Messi's from another planet.

There are no words to describe Messi; he always surprises you.

It's special - when you start playing, you are aware of names like Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie; you have seen them playing and know what great players they are. So it's fantastic to have a chance to line up with them. I'm really pleased with how that understanding has started off.

Thanks to God, I was able to come to PSG and be myself again.

It was always a dream and goal of mine to try out in English football.
