Juventus winger Angel Di Maria has confirmed he is leaving the club this summer after just 12 months with the club. The Argentine international joined the Bianconeri on a free transfer and after a difficult initial spell, went on to score key goals in Serie A and Europe. The 35-year-old once again suffered a dip in form in the tail end of the season and has now confirmed he is leaving Juve, posting an emotional Instagram post explaining the decision:
“I have come to the end of a difficult and complicated period.
“I leave safe in the knowledge I gave my all for the club to continue winning titles, but it was not possible. I leave with a bitter taste at not having succeeded, but with the joy of bringing with me many friends in this marvellous locker room that I was part of.
“Thank you to all my teammates for the affection they showed me from the first day, I always felt at home. I salute all the Juventini for their daily affection.
“A big hug. I will carry you in my heart.”
