Di Maria: PSG's money problems allowed United to sign me Manchester United's record signing has revealed Ligue 1 champions PSG were thwarted by Financial Fair Play in their efforts to sign Angel di Maria.

Di Maria completed a £59.7m transfer to United in mid-August after PSG president President Nasser al-Khelaifi said the 26-year-old was "too expensive".

"Now I’m in the English league. But you never know, there is a lot of movements in football. You can never predict where you’re going to play.
"There were a lot of clubs interested in me. A lot really. But Manchester United appeared and didn’t go away. They absolutely wanted me and it happened."
Manuel Pellegrini admitted earlier this month City's "important restrictions" issues ended their interest in the Argentinean .

He clearly meant to say "It has always been my dream to wear the Manchester Utd shirt" but forgot. I'm sure he'll say it next time.
