Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal has said that he is prepared to
let Angel di Maria leave Old Trafford if the player has become unsettled
after an attempted break-in at his home.
The intruders were foiled but the incident unsettled the Argentina
international to such an extent that he has moved his family into an
apartment owned by the former United defender Phil Neville.
Van Gaal, when asked if he would let Di Maria leave on compassionate
grounds, said: "I am always like that. When you see my history, that's
part of my philosophy. A player is not just a man who kicks the ball
from A to B. His environment is influencing him."
"I shall always
be open but I know that the commercial interests of the club and we have
to respect that. You cannot give a lot of money for a player and next
season put him out of your selection."
Di Maria has failed to sparkle after a £59.7million move from Real
Madrid last summer, and the attempted burglary in January has led to
renewed speculation over his future.
Van Gaal said: "When I think that the chemistry between the players and the
manager is not good enough anymore then I go. But when I see the
chemistry between myself and the players now then I don't have any
doubts. We have to continue in our process."
