Angel di Maria responds to Manchester United exit rumours

Angel di Maria admits that his first season at Manchester United was hard but insists that he is not leaving.

Angel di Maria has rubbished suggestions that he will leave Manchester United this summer after a trying first season in England last term.

The Red Devils smashed their transfer record by signing the Argentine for £59.7m from Real Madrid last summer but the winger struggled to scale the heights expected of him.

Consequently, speculation has mounted that the 27-year-old could quit the Old Trafford club, with Paris Saint-Germain reportedly keen.

"I have just finished my first season playing for Manchester United," Di Maria told The Sun.

"It was a hard season for me. I think it was hard because it was another country and another league, and this league is harder than the Spanish one. So, I couldn't adapt myself as I wanted to.

"Now I will play the Copa America and then I will move back to Manchester for next season and do my best there."

Di Maria scored three times and bagged 10 assists from 27 Premier League appearances last season.
