Angel Di Maria linked with shock deadline day transfer to Champions League club to link up with Man Utd pal
ANGEL DI MARIA is reportedly being lined up for a shock deadline day move to Galatasaray.
Foot Mercato claims the Turkish giants are determined to qualify for next season’s Champions League.
And despite being nine points clear at the top of the Super Lig table, Gala chiefs don’t want to take any chances.
They’ve already raided Roma for Nicolo Zaniolo this month.
But Di Maria has now emerged as a potential late transfer ahead of Saturday’s deadline.
The Argentina World Cup winner is out of contract at Juventus in June.
He only moved to Turin from PSG for free last summer but has been limited to just 13 games after injury problems.
Galatasaray boast a number of top names in Dries Mertens, Lucas Torreira and Mauro Icardi.
And a move to Istanbul would also see Di Maria link up with ex-Man United pal Juan Mata.
However, Fabrizio Romano claims the winger will not be leaving Juventus in the coming days.

Di Maria has seen an upturn in form since winning the World Cup in December.
And both he and Juventus are determined to see the season through before making a decision on his future.
Barcelona have reportedly made contact over a free swoop this summer.
And should they lure pal Lionel Messi back to the Nou Camp from PSG, Di Maria is likely to follow.
