Overview
- In a video posted on Feb. 16, Fillol said members of Argentina’s coaching staff and some players are trying to persuade Ángel Di María to rejoin the national team for the World Cup.
- He praised Di María’s Rosario Central form, citing pace, sharpness and goals in Argentina’s top division.
- Di María previously stated after the 2024 Copa América that his national-team cycle was complete.
- Fillol framed his view that Di María will accept a recall as a personal hunch rather than an official signal.
- There is no confirmation from Di María or team officials, with the 2026 World Cup scheduled for June in the United States, Mexico and Canada.
