Gylfi Sigurdsson has admitted that he doesn’t regret snubbing a move to Liverpool in favour of joining Tottenham Hotspur, despite his career in North London failing.
The Icelandic left Swansea City in order to join Spurs back in 2012, but after struggling to cement a first-team spot at White Hart Lane, he eventually left the club in order to rejoin the Welsh side.
Sigurdsson was so impressive for Swansea during his loan-spell there that manager at the time, Brendan Rodgers, wanted to take him to Anfield with him, however, the playmaker eventually chose Tottenham and he insists that he has no regrets about the move.
Sigurdsson explained: “I always say I enjoyed my time at Spurs and I improved as a player so I don’t look back and think ‘what if?’.
“I played with some really good players and I’m in a good team now and really enjoying my football.
“With the Brendan link in the press it seemed it was more likely I’d go there but Tottenham showed a lot of interest in me and at that time they had players like Gareth Bale and things looked really good.
“Obviously there have been plenty of changes over the past two years and new faces have been brought in but I will always remember my time as a positive one.”
