After the departure of Neymar to Paris Saint Germain, Barcelona has been forced to play without wingers. This has affected the general performance of the team especially in terms of chance creation.

This is why the Blaugrana will be looking forward to signing another winger to replace the Brazilian. PSG superstar, Angel Di Maria has been highlighted as the perfect player to take up the role.

The Argentine was heavily linked with a move to the Camp Nou during the summer but Barca failed to secure his services as the move was reportedly blocked by UEFA due to an examination of Paris Saint-Germain and their compliance with Financial Fair Play rules.

However, Barcelona has reportedly reignited their interest in the winger and will be back to sign the Argentine in January.

His addition will have a great effect on the team due to his overall ability, creativity, and versatility.

The player recently spoke about the failed move and stated that his Madrid past would not stop him from completing a deal to Barca as well as refusing to rule out the possibility of joining in the future. He said:

"I was close to joining Barcelona in the summer and yet far away at the same time."
"It is hard to complete moves to these clubs."
"I never lost hope of it going through but in the end, it didn't happen."
"My Madrid past wouldn't have been an issue as I'm not a Madrid fan and I always point that out whenever I'm asked about it."
"What will happen in the future, we never know"
