Real Madrid centre back Raphael Varane admits he was ready to joinManchester United in 2011.
Varane says, however, he decided against the move after United signed Blackburn Rovers defender Phil Jones.
When asked about his decision to move to the Spanish capital, Varane told L'Equipe: "Manchester United? They had just signed Phil Jones in my position.
"PSG? The project there wasn't clear. The Qataris had only just arrived and it was all very vague.
"My first reaction when Real wanted to sign me was not, 'Of course I will go'. I only made my decision when I knew that the coach wanted me to play in the first team."
