Statements by Ángel Di María, 35-year-old Argentine attacking midfielder, in his presentation as a Benfica player

Rejected proposals: “I had many proposals from many places, but I had the illusion, the strength and the enthusiasm to come back here, home, to feel happy again. And I sincerely chose with my heart. It’s reality. I chose with my heart and nothing else. Thank you very much.” Return: “What I feel is what I felt when I arrived in Lisbon in 2007, it’s working, continuing to fight and winning titles. Benfica won the 38th this year and I hope next year we can follow the same path and be able to win the 39th. Thank you very much.” Read more in O Jogo
