Angel Di Maria’s proposed move to Juventus has elicited a mixed reaction from Bianconeri supporters on social media.
Football Italia told you on Monday how the Argentina winger is closing in on a free transfer to the Allianz Stadium.
The deal will be for a one-year contract with the option of a further 12 months and a salary of €7 million net per year.
And, while the prospect of a seven-time title-winner across three European leagues is an attractive prospect to some fans, others believe that, with Di Maria no 34, Juve should be looking elsewhere.

La programmazione. Ripartire con un quasi 35enne per un altro anno fallimentare. https://t.co/G2TqAQKGSN

I am just tired of seeing old players come to our league at their end of their careers. Like why don’t you go to @MLS like Miami or LA and enjoy life.

Di Maria on a free is a big signing for a Juventus who will be letting on of players walk. Brings experience and the length of the contract makes it so that it is not that risky. Its kinda like Juve are trying to buy some time for Soule to step up 👀⚫️⚪️

Raspadori e Di Maria sarebbe la più saggia tra le ipotesi https://t.co/h7LUlKfE9P

Di Maria a la Juve es lo más estúpido del mercado de transferencias

Yes to Pogba, and only yes to 1 of Di Maria or Perisic. Need a good mix of experience and youth. Plus the wages of all 3 would prevent us from other upgrades https://t.co/badiGACVPJ

Death, taxes, and Juve signing players on a Bosman. Pogba(again) next? https://t.co/Pg0b1QROEW pic.twitter.com/pxaefzm46m

Juventus will look offensive with Di Maria Vlahovic partnership⚽ PSG need to rebuild heavily. https://t.co/jbmG68shvy

With DiMaria joining us soon, I hope there won't stop us from getting some decent RMF in a type of Mo Salah. https://t.co/SK2Gmhv58W

Big fan of this move. Sure, it contradicts Juve's recent transfer policy, but Di Maria's the ultimate short-term solution. Should he stay fit (his injury record's pretty good), then he'll be a valuable asset for the next two years. https://t.co/tzqDefCBk9

letting dybala go and signing a 6-year older injury prone argentinian on a higher wage is the play 🤝 https://t.co/JfRRHWmIQX

€7M net per year? Still below what Juventus are paying Ramsey and his agent every year LOL>
He will certainly decline into the same deck chair as PhD, 1Mbps set me to sleep after 12 seconds lol.
Juventus is a step down for him and that is the truth. He has won the CL with Real Madrid and P$G still have a better chance with the oil money. Good place to retire. On his first day he can visit the treatment room run by Flimsay and will never have to go beyond the halfway line. PhD Max is planning to revolutionise the style of play and pack up shop after 25 minutes to defend even the 0-0. This season he has been too daring trying to win games 5-0 and more CALMAAAA is needed.
A bit odd considering one of the reasons why Kulu was sold was because a fast turtle could beat him in a sprint. How is Di Maria holding up these days?
Why not keep Dybala instead of him then? Even for 1 or 2m more, surely it makes sense?
Di Maria to rebuild the team? WOW!! I am a Juventus ultran fan, but it seems that buying old players or getting them in free transfer is best Juve’s administration can do.
Shows the desperation, and mismanagement of Juve. Get rid of Agnelli, Nedved, and the tobacco salesman.
I’d rather super mario mandzukic juve should have kept him at least one more season
He’s at the end of his career and it’s hard to reject a move to Italian football with Juve.
Italian football would suit him, but not necessarily Allegri’s style.
If Juve are planning to go with experienced and accomplished players, Di Maria is not the greatest choice. Pogba and Perisic, I can understand.
agnelli annd allegri – the genius combination of winning no trophies and maybe getting kicked out of Europe. No wonder Elkann is only heavily investing in the structure. People come and go, Juve remains.
