The world of football is boiling after the shock statements of Enzo Fernández, Chelsea midfielder, who revealed his deep disappointment in the face of the decision of his compatriot ángel Di María to join Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). During a moving interview relayed on X this Tuesday, May 27, 2025 at 3:12 p.m., Fernández shared his frustration: “I did my best to convince him to join Chelsea, but he told me that he had already made the decision to sign with PSG. Imagine my own teammate in selection betray me like this! This announcement confirms that Di María, Argentine legend, has concluded a personal agreement with PSG, Chelsea snubbing in an unexpected saga of transfers.
At 36, Ángel Di María, who became a free agent after the end of his contract with Benfica, remains an emblematic figure of world football, with 145 selections for Argentina and a prize list including the 2022 World Cup and the Champions League. His choice to join PSG, which is preparing his Champions League final against Barcelona, is a hard blow for Chelsea, who hoped to strengthen his attack with the experience and creativity of the winger. Fernández, who shared historical moments with Di María in the Albiceleste jersey, did not hide his feeling of betrayal, adding a personal dimension to this transfer.
According to sources close to PSG, Di María was seduced by Luis Enrique’s project, who sees in him a leader capable of bringing a touch of magic in the big games. The Parisian club, in search of new talents after the departure of Kylian Mbappé, acted quickly to finalize this agreement without transfer costs, taking advantage of the status of free agent of Di María. Parisian supporters, delighted, already celebrate on social networks, seeing on this arrival a chance to strengthen their workforce before the European final.
For Chelsea, this backhand is a blow in an already complicated transfer window. Fernández, who dreamed of reforming an Argentinian duo at Stamford Bridge, must now digest this disappointment while the club explores other options, such as Alexander Isak or Viktor Gyökeres. On X, blues fans express their frustration, while those of PSG are delighted with this strategic blow. While Di María is about to start a new chapter at the Parc des Princes, this transfer illustrates once again the volatility of loyalties in high -level football.
