Manchester United transfers: Angel di Maria won't join Reds as he wants Champions League football

Real Madrid are ready to sell Angel Di Maria for £40million - but he will snub Manchester United.
Argentina World Cup winger Di Maria has hit a contract stalemate at European champions Real, and are now ready to cash in rather than meet his demands - although coach Carlo Ancelotti will try to persuade them not to sell.


Top agent Jorge Mendes has sounded out several top European sides, but Di Maria has made it clear he wants to go to a club in the Champions League.


The Reds, out of Europe altogether next season after finishing seventh last season, have also distanced themselves from reports that they are interested in the 26-year-old.


French champions Paris Saint-Germain are very keen. Italian title winners Juventus have also expressed an interest, but do not have the funds necessary to buy him.
