Barcelona look to Di Maria after failing to sign Coutinho

The La Liga side have started their season pretty much exactly where they left off last season. However, the enormous void left by Neymar is yet to be occupied. The Camp Nou outfit have relentlessly pursued Liverpool's Philippe Coutinho, only to be mercilessly rejected.

As per Sky Sources, Barcelona have now reportedly ended their interest in the Brazilian, and have averted their gaze towards Paris Saint-Germain's Angel Di Maria. The Argentinian is rich in La Liga experience, having played for rivals Real Madrid in the past.

Real Madrid to sign De Gea next summer

In what's becoming the transfer saga of the decade, Real Madrid have pulled yet another plot-twist. The La Liga champions registered interest in the goalkeeper earlier this summer, but to no avail, as the 26-year old was wary of Keylor Navas and didn't intend on playing second fiddle.

The Spanish side made a humble retreat, but plan on getting their man next summer. Reports from Spain claim that club have already set the wheels in motion and that club president Florentino Perez has told Navas that he will be leaving the club in June, despite being on a contract until 2020.
