Pellegrini pushes Man City to bid for Real Madrid's Di Maria

Incoming Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini is chasing Real Madrid winger Angel di Maria.

The People says Pellegrini takes charge of Manchester City this week and will ask Etihad chiefs to sanction a move for £30million Real Madrid star Di Maria.
