Ángel Di María clarifies future after Rosario Central exit

Rosario Central has been eliminated from the Copa Libertadores following a 1-0 defeat against Corinthians in Brazil. The loss, which occurred in the round of 16, sparked immediate concern regarding the future of club captain Ángel Di María.

Following the match, Di María made emotional comments suggesting he might need to reconsider his professional career, stating, “It is a hard moment... it's going to be necessary to think and see what I want to keep doing.” These remarks caused significant alarm among fans regarding a potential retirement.

However, Di María later clarified his position via social media, asserting that his initial comments were made in a moment of intense anguish. “I am not abandoning, what I said was from anguish, just a moment,” he stated, emphasizing that his commitment to the club remains intact. He described the situation as a “comma” rather than a full stop, expressing his intent to continue fighting for the team in domestic competitions like the Torneo Clausura.
