The iconic Argentine winger, Angel Di Maria, has decided to end his international career with the Argentine national team after the upcoming Copa América in the United States next summer.

At the age of 35, Di Maria boasts an international career rich in success and trophies. Over his 136 caps, Di Maria scored 29 goals and played a crucial role in Argentina’s triumphs, winning the U20 World Cup in 2007, the Olympics in 2008, the Copa América in 2021, the Finalissima, and most notably the World Cup in 2022.

His impact on the game and decisive performances in finals have marked each of these victories. Di Maria’s decision to retire after the Copa América marks the end of an era for the Argentine national team, but his legacy as one of the most iconic and successful players in Argentine football will endure.


‘I will wear the Argentine shirt for the last time at the Copa América. With all the pain in my soul and feeling a lump in my throat, I say goodbye to the most beautiful thing that happened to me in my career, wearing it, sweating it, and FEELING it with all the pride. Thanks to the fans, thanks to the family, thanks to friends and fellow teammates; we continue to write history, and it will remain for eternity. Go Argentina,’ stated the Benfica winger on his social media.”
