Buenos Aires, July 8 -- Argentine forward Angel Di Maria said Monday he is fulfilling a dream by rejoining Rosario Central after nearly two decades in Europe.



The 37-year-old was officially unveiled as a Rosario Central player during a press conference at a hotel in downtown Rosario, about 300 kilometers northwest of Buenos Aires.



"This is something very beautiful, something I've dreamed of for a long time," Di Maria said, wiping away tears. "I wanted to come back earlier, but it wasn't possible. Today I'm here, happy, with my family."

Di Maria returns to the Argentine Primera Division club on a free transfer following the expiration of his contract with Benfica. He has signed a 12-month deal with an option to extend.
