ManUtd manager, Louis Van Gaal confirms Angel Di Maria's absence in their pre-season tour.
He says: he "does not know why" Angel Di Maria has not joined up with his team on their pre-season tour.
French paper L'Equipe reports United have agreed a £46.5m deal with Paris St-Germain for the 27-year-old Argentina midfielder.
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 Angel 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 French champions PSG.
However, it has now been claimed the midfielder, 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 America - for a medical with the Ligue 1 club.
