Ángel Di María, former Benfica player and world champion with Argentina, has successfully completed his coaching course, obtaining the respective diploma and thus taking another step in his professional career. The training was conducted at School No. 193, an institution officially recognized by the Argentine Football Association (AFA) and Conmebol since 1998. The school itself took the opportunity to congratulate the Rosario Central player through a publication. "With great pride, we congratulate Di María on his diploma and thank him for trusting us with his coaching education," the statement read. A post shared by Cuna del Fútbol Escuela DT ATFA Rosario (@escueladt__atfa_rosario) Although the end of his playing career is not yet on the horizon, Di María has already expressed his desire to pursue a coaching career, ideally alongside his friend and teammate Leandro Paredes. The duo shared a locker room in the Argentine national team, at PSG, and at Juventus, totaling over 130 games together. In an interview with ESPN at the end of last year, El Fideo revealed his future plans. "We will try. I am older than Paredes, but during this time until he retires, I will be observing things. We are very good friends. He is like my younger brother, and our families love each other. We would really like it. It’s difficult, but we have talked about it many times. We will see when the time comes," he stated. Di María even mentioned having a preferred tactical system, the 4-3-3, which Paredes also likes. "My teams will play in 4-3-3, and Leandro Paredes likes it. We haven’t discussed if anyone else would join the coaching staff. It’s already been talked about. We will coach Rosario Central once and Boca Juniors once, if we have the opportunity. And the national team would also be something beautiful. I saw how Scaloni, Aimar, and the coaching staff enjoy it," he added. Although Di María is in the final stages of his career, Paredes, a midfielder for Boca Juniors, still has a long road ahead but is ready to embrace this challenge in the future.
