Di Maria: I adapted very quickly in Paris, and when Messi joined, I tried my best to help him adapt

Live bar January 19 news Beijing time next Monday morning in the 22nd round of Ligue 1, Paris Saint-Germain will sit in the Parc des Princes stadium to meet Reims. In this game, Di Maria, who has recovered from the new crown, is expected to return. In an interview with Paris Saint-Germain, the Argentine winger spoke about his recovery from injury and his career.

About healing from COVID-19

I feel good now. Thankfully, I didn't have any complications and just waited at home to get back on the training ground. I think the last time I played a full game was on December 22 last year. My body is feeling better and better, and now that I've found the rhythm, it's very important.

About Paris Saint-Germain in the league with a huge advantage in the table

I think we've had a strong start to this season and everyone has a desire to win everything, which is very important. However, I think the level of Ligue 1 has also improved a lot. It's not just us, all the teams can play great games, so I don't think Ligue 1 is easy to play today. In such an environment, it is normal for us to be criticized. However, we have to think about ourselves, give 100% of ourselves, and ensure that we are always at the best level.

About the run-in with the team's new signings

When a player enters the new season as soon as he joins, I think it's hard for him to adapt right away. Even the best players in the world, if you don't know each other, then you need to make that connection. But we try to gradually increase the connection so that we can solve problems together, and it is important to keep winning. Only in this way can we increase the confidence of everyone to work together and strive to move everyone towards the same goal.

About Messi

I think it's good to have playing with Messi before because I know him, know where he's usually on the pitch, know how he goes to get the ball and know where he's going to take the ball and try to score. Obviously, when you play at a club, the other team-mates have different running positions and play styles, from Mbappe to Verratti. I think everything needs to be run-in before all the elements come together. Like everyone on the team, Messi will continue to improve himself.

About the new signings running in with everyone off the pitch

When I first came to Paris, I felt like home, as if I had been living here all along. I adapted quickly and well because I had team-mates like Pastore, Ravitch, Verratti, Ibrahimovic, Maxville and Motta, and they made my integration easier from day one. Their wives and my wife also have a great relationship. Honestly, everything is simple for me.

So, when Paredes joined Paris Saint-Germain and Messi came recently, we tried to help them, give them advice and get them used to it as soon as possible. I think it's very important to make them feel comfortable from day one.
