Argentina striker, Angel Di Maria would be retiring, after fulfilling his international contract for his country in Copa America 2024.
Di Maria was a joy to watch in the 2022 FIFA World Cup. He was also part of the team that got the gold after 36 years.
He found the net in the final against France and was an influential figure on the pitch throughout the 120 minutes.
Di Maria has 132 caps to date and has scored 29 goals since making his debut against Paraguay in a World Cup qualifier in 2008.
Angel also scored in the 2021 Copa America final triumph against Brazil and again in the 2022 Finalissima win against Italy.
Cesar Luis Menotti, the manager who led Argentina to their first World Cup title in 1978 said that he could be compared with the likes of Messi and Maradona.
