Manchester United's Angel di Maria has been voted Argentina's foreign-based player of the year by the country's sports journalists, beating Lionel Messi to the award.
Di Maria, who joined Louis van Gaal's side for a club record £60million fee this summer, won the Olimpia de Plata (Silver Olimpia award) at a ceremony on Tuesday after pipping Messi to the prize.
Di Maria helped former club Real Madrid win their 10th European Cup in May and Argentina reach the World Cup final, which he missed through injury, in Brazil and has made an impressive start to his career in England.
