The Italian tactician who has admitted to the difficulty in the Premier League before and after the loss to London rivals Arsenal, seems set to waste no time to bolster his squad.

According to report emanating from Don Balon, says Di Maria is unhappy under their new boss Unai Emery, the same boss that told David Luiz his place in the team is no longer automatic starter. Different clubs are reportedly interested as they monitor his situation closely, but Chelsea are the ones considered most interested in the prospect of securing the Argentine forward.

Angel Do Maria left England just a year ago, recruited by ex-United Boss Louis Van Gal but failed to impress in England as niggling injuries were associated with his poor performances in England.

Antonio Conte who has called on Eden Hazard to be the main man to turn things around for the Blues this season, has been playing under his shadows and below par after bright start in his first three games. He now looks set to undo the heavy burden placed on Eden Hazard and reduce the overdependence on the Belgian by turning to Do Maria. Conte is reported to be a huge admirer of the the Argentine forward ever since his days at Real Madrid.

It remains to be seen how Di Maria responds to the interest of heading back England, a League he found so uncomfortable to adapt with in his time at Old Trafford.
