Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini has confessed his liking for Benfica winger Angel Di Maria.
The 22-year-old Argentina
international has been strongly
linked with a new challenge in the summer, with a host of clubs across
Europe monitoring his situation.
Mancini
is believed to be an admirer of
Di Maria's
qualities, having been spotted
at Anfield during Benfica's Europa League tie against Liverpool
earlier this month.
The
Italian coach has now joined City's technical director, Mike Rigg,
in praising Di Maria, saying:
"Di Maria is a good player and, in the future, we'll see."
