Angel Di Maria Net Worth: Here's How Much the Argentinian Soccer Star Is Making Before His Last World Cup

Like Lionel Messi, fellow Argentinian soccer legend Angel Di Maria recently announced that FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar will be his last World Cup game for Argentina.

Messi and Di Maria will be doing their "last dance" against France on Sunday as both seek to lift the World Cup for the first time.

With the FIFA World Cup in Qatar in full swing, many soccer fans are now wondering how much is Di Maria's net worth as he says goodbye to the international soccer game.

Angel Di Maria Is One of the Highest-Paid Athletes in the World

Angel Di Maria is considered one of the best wingers in the game and has proven that he could still hang with younger players during this year's World Cup tournament in Qatar.

His stellar career took him from the streets of Rosario in Argentina to the bright lights of UEFA and now the World Cup.

Like most Argentinians who eventually turned pro, Di Maria started his soccer career at a very young age, enrolling at a local club's sports academy in Rosario, the same hometown as his teammate Lionel Messi.

Di Maria comes from a poor family. He started his youth soccer league with Rosario Central at age 13 before debuting in the team's main squad at 17.

As he continued playing for Rosario Central, some European agents saw him, and he almost made his European debut with the Russian side Rubin, but the deal was withdrawn at the last moment. He soon joined the Portuguese side, Benfica.

With Real Madrid, Di Maria showed how good he is. He eventually signed with other big teams like Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germaine, where he played alongside his next big opponent at the World Cup, Kylian Mbappe.

Di Maria is currently playing for the Italian side Juventus, and despite his older age, he remains to be one of soccer's most sought-after wingers.

With Messi, he won the Copa America for Argentina last year, beating former PSG teammate and Brazilian star Neymar.

Now, Di Maria is seeking to leave the international competition as a world champion. According to the Athletic, the Juventus star has long hinted that this would be his final World Cup tournament.

When Argentina defeated Venezuela at home during the World Cup qualifiers, he said: "It was probably my last match with this shirt in Argentina. And to be able to say that it was a wonderful night is an understatement."

How Much Is Angel Di Maria's Net Worth?

Angel Di Maria made it to Forbes' Top 100 Highest Paid Athletes in 2016, ranking at #83. His five-year contract with Manchester is reportedly the fifth most expensive transfer of all time and the highest fee ever paid by a British club.

He earned millions of dollars from contracts with some of the biggest teams in Europe and endorsement deals. His salary is worth around $7 million, and Forbes lists his endorsements to cost around $1.5 million.

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Angel Di Maria's net worth is about $18 million. While this pales in comparison to his iconic Argentina teammate, this is way more than most other players on the team.
