Di Maria has announced that he may be going into international retirement soon. Sources have said that Messi’s decision also prompted this change.
Recall that Messi made a similar decision but has since retracted his statements after the penalty shootout loss in Chile.

However, Di Maria, 28, warned he would call it quits if Argentina tasted defeat in another final.“I almost started therapy, but in the end I decided it was something I had to figure out by myself,” he said.
