Angel Di Maria returns to Benfica at 35, reunited with Rui Kushta

Posted : 06 July 2023
After more than a decade, Angel Di Maria fulfills his dream of returning to his former club, Benfica, at the age of 35. The Argentine star had always expressed his love for the Portuguese club, and with Rui Kushta now leading the team, the circle is complete. Di Maria previously played under Kushta's guidance and had a successful stint at Benfica, where he developed a strong bond with his teammates, including Oscar Cardoso.
 
Despite receiving tempting offers from other clubs, Di Maria chose Lisbon because it felt like the right city for him and his family. His initial seasons at Benfica were challenging, but under coach Jorge Jesus, he found his place and flourished. He became a key player, leading the team to a championship win and finishing as the top assist scorer in the Portuguese league.
 
Di Maria's impressive performances attracted interest from top clubs, and he eventually joined Real Madrid under Jose Mourinho. However, his connection to Benfica remained strong, and last year there were rumors of a possible return. Although he briefly played for Juventus, Di Maria decided to come back to Benfica, showing his loyalty and willingness to contribute at the highest level.
 
The Argentine winger has always expressed gratitude to Benfica for giving him the opportunity to make the move to Europe and for the trust shown by the coaching staff. Despite having the chance to reunite with Lionel Messi at Inter Miami, Di Maria chose Benfica, emphasizing the importance of the club in his career and the special connection he has with the fans.
 
With his wealth of experience, Di Maria aims to guide and inspire the younger generation at Benfica while continuing to showcase his creative and dynamic style of play. The club and its fans welcome him with open arms, excited to witness his contributions and hoping to defend the title they won last season.
