Chelsea midfielder, Cesc Fabregas, has hinted that he rejected a move to Manchester United in the Summer.
The Spaniard has claimed in a recent interview that he had three options in England after announcing his intentions to leave FC Barcelona, and with two of them being Arsenal and Chelsea, it’s reported that the third option, was Manchester United.
Fabregas was wanted by David Moyes last Summer at Old Trafford, but the Spanish international rejected the chance to move back to England, only to complete the switch to Chelsea just a year later.
In a recent interview, Fabregas admitted that Chelsea and Arsenal were not his only English options, with United expected to be the third choice.
‘If I had not had confidence [in Chelsea] I would not have talking with [Mourinho],’ said the 27-year-old.
‘[Jose] showed by great respect and convinced me quickly.
‘We were honest, we put aside any history, and I made my decision after talking with him.
‘Overall, I had three options [on the table from] England.’
