Ángel Di María will not be there when Argentina takes on Ecuador (October 8) and Bolivia (October 13). National coach Lionel Scaloni has not included the attacker of Paris Saint-Germain in his thirty-man pre-selection for the World Cup qualifying matches. The routine wonders why he is not on Scaloni’s list.

“I have had no explanation. I have no words for it either. The Argentinian team is the most important thing to me”, the 32-year-old attacker responds. Closs Continental. “I work very hard at Argentina and PSG, every practice and every game. It is therefore difficult to understand that I was not called up. I will continue to do my best for a call up.”

Di María has not had a call from Scaloni, says the 102-time international. “Am I too old at 32? Many people say that I am too old, but at the age of 32 I am still performing at the top. I keep running like I always have. Every race I show that I am not too old. I’m old. I can still act on the same level as Neymar and Kylian Mbappé. “

“If I am not called up because of my age, then Lionel Messi (33 years old, ed.) And Nicolás Otamendi (32 years old, ed.) Can no longer receive an invitation. Then you should ignore Lionel,” said Di María, who was recently suspended for four games after spitting in the face of Álvaro González of Olympique Marseille. “I hope I will be called up again for Argentina. This hurts a lot, because I always want to be called up. I’ve wanted this since I was twelve.”
