According Tuttomercatoweb, Juventus want to extend Di Maria’s contract.
But Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are also hot on the heels of the midfielder, and would like to add him to their squad.
Di Maria has enjoyed a storied career in European football.
After making his name at Benfica, he would star at Real Madrid for four years between 2010-14, where he won the Champions League.
Man Utd brought him to the Premier League in 2014 for £60million.
