The Merengues seem to have won the race for the gifted youngster...



The 22-year-old midfielder has been courted by some of Europe's biggest clubs after an impressive season at the Estadio da Luz in which he has been Benfica's main provider in the league with 11 assists.

Chelsea and Manchester City are also believed to be tracking Di Maria, but reports in Argentina claim Real Madrid have landed their man for €34,5 million, a transfer fee record in Portugal.

Rumours concerning Di Maria's exit from Benfica have intensified after the Portuguese club signed Nicolas Gaitan from Boca Juniors on Monday.

Di Maria, who has been included in Argentina boss Diego Maradona's list for the World Cup in South Africa, joined Benfica from Rosario Central in 2007 for €8 million.

people €34.5 MILLION

IS... £23 MILLION
 
Well, Benfica lost a big star here, but granted loads of money... Anyway, we wouldn't hold him for much longer. Nowadays, the portuguese football is just a good place to jump to European bigger clubs, e.g. Nani, Anderson, Ronaldo, Pepe, R. Carvalho, Bosingwa, Simao, Deco, etc. Besides, I think Gaitan can handle the task of replacing him. However, the only way he is worth 35M is for the immense potential he has, as today he is just a very good player, the king of assists, the player who currently gives portuguese football some show, but not worth that amount. Just disappointed he won't be in his last game due to a stupid yellow card (5th in the season) in his last game, against Porto. Wish him the best of luck, and hope to say, in the future, that one of the best players in the world was shown to Europe was playing at Benfica.

no its about 29,350,000, which is a lot of money for him
 
He's over rated and the worst diver i've seen in some time (excluding Drogba). If they do get him, where will he play? Replace Ronaldo? Kaka? ...

Its funny, I had the same thought. They chucked Sneijder and Robben and now both are readying themselves to go to the Champions League final, ironically, in the Bernabeu. You can't predict that kind of stuff!

I'd of thought Van Der Vaart,Raul, Gago,Drenthe,Diarra,Dudek will be surplus. 4 of those players were signed for a large amount less than 3, perhaps even 2 years ago. All have quality and will walk into most teams
 
I think that he will end up in the epl with man city, arsenal or spurs
 
Wasn't the rumour thread started to prevent ***** like this?
