Angel Di Maria's proposed move from Manchester United to Paris
St-Germain is "close" to being decided, says the French team's coach
Laurent Blanc.
The Argentina midfielder has not joined United on their
pre-season tour of America, and manager Louis van Gaal has said he
"does not know why".
"There is a good possibility he could sign but there is nothing official," said Blanc after a defeat by Chelsea.
"We have to have patience a little longer. The outcome is very close."
French paper L'Equipe has reported United have agreed a £46.5m deal with the French champions for the 27-year-old.
But it is understood talks are ongoing with a fee yet to be agreed.
"He was not on the plane," said Van Gaal after the 3-1 friendly win over Barcelona
in Santa Clara, California.
"Marcos Rojo was also not on the plane. He has had a
passport issue - for Di Maria, I don't know why. I cannot say anything."
Van Gaal Said On Friday
that Di Maria would join United on their pre-season tour of the United States, despite rumours about a move to PSG
However, it has now been claimed the winger, who moved
to the Premier League from Real Madrid last summer for a British record
£59.7m, will travel to New Jersey - where PSG are based during their
tour of the United States - for a medical with the Ligue 1 club.
