Arca: 'Di Maria will settle quickly'

New Manchester United signing Angel di Maria will have no problem adjusting to the Premier League, according to ex-Middlesbrough defender Julio Arca.

The Argentina winger became the most expensive player in British history when United clinched a £59.7m switch from Real Madrid on Tuesday, but Arca thinks that his compatriot will be able to adapt quickly.

He told talkSPORT: "It wasn't easy [when I came over]. It is not an easy league. You need to try and adapt as soon as possible in this league.

"But the good thing with him is he is a player that really works hard. He will find the English style easy because he is quick. Personally, I don't think he will have many problems adapting.

"If you have players that work hard and are committed, it makes it easier. I'm sure the Manchester United fans will like that [about Di Maria]."

United travel to Burnley this weekend.
