Argentina’s football squad visited Kolkata in 2011 and played a friendly match versus Venezuela at the Youth India Stadium, which was packed. Leo Messi, one of the greatest footballers of all time, made his debut as Argentina’s captain in that game.

Angel Di Maria was a member of that team who was trained by Alejandro Sabre. Messi’s day-to-day teammate drew the attention of the Qatar World Cup. He also scored in the championship game. Di Maria is returning to Kolkata after a long absence. If all goes well, D’Maria may be spotted in the city over the October holiday season.

Incidentally, Di Maria has been with Messi since the start of his international career. Together they won the Junior World Cup, Olympic Gold Medal, Copa America, Finalissima and above all the World Cup.

Di Maria also scored in each final. He has seen Messi’s success and failure very closely. Therefore, football lovers are eager to know the different aspects of Di Maria’s life in the city as well as to know the unknown aspects of Messi.

Satadru Dutta invited Emiliano Martinez to visit Calcutta. He is also the driving force behind Di Maria’s visit to the city. The task of getting the World Cup finalist to the city has finally been completed.

The precise arrival date of Di Maria is yet to be announced. Angel Di Maria is expected to visit Kolkata between October 21 and October 26. As a result, Di Maria’s visit to Kolkata during the festive season can be thought of as a puja bonus for football fans.
