Ángel Di María will break his silence this Wednesday in a press conference, as reported by Olé. The meeting with journalists will take place after training in Arroyo Seco, at a key moment for Rosario Central following the 1-1 draw against Newell's Old Boys last Sunday.
What will Di María say in his conference?
The club icon will speak publicly for the first time since the frustrating Rosario derby. Jorge Almirón's team dominated the match but a late goal snatched victory at Arroyito. Di María, who had won his first two derbies since returning to the club, now faces a complex moment.
The conference, reported by Olé, will likely address the match analysis and the team's irregular current form. Rosario Central sits seventh in the Clausura's Group B with 12 points, from 3 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses. In the annual table they are sixth with 40 points, 5 behind leaders Argentinos Juniors. Their recent league form is concerning, with 0 wins, 3 draws and 2 defeats in their last five outings (DLLDD).
What is Ángel Di María's future?
An inevitable question will revolve around the player's continuity, as he turns 39 in February. His contract with Canalla runs until June 2027, but after elimination from the Copa Libertadores against Corinthians, Di María himself cast doubt. "Now it's time to think and see what I want to keep doing," he stated at the time.
Hours later, however, the footballer posted a message on Instagram to clarify his words and reaffirm his commitment. He wrote it was a comment made "from anguish" and assured: "I do not abandon." This episode generates expectation about what he will say in the conference scheduled for Wednesday midday.
How does Rosario Central arrive at the next match?
The team must quickly leave behind the bitter taste of the derby. Offensively, the season's balance shows 9 goals for and 8 against, with a positive difference of +1. The focus is now on the next round of the tournament.
Canalla will visit Tigre next Sunday, September 13th. The opponent occupies sixth place in the table, making it a direct duel for the upper positions. The squad needs to regroup to improve its performance in the local competition.
