Barcelona midfielder Cesc Fabregas insists he never considered a move to Manchester United.
The Spain international is a boyhood Barcelona fan and remains determined to forge a successful career at Camp Nou.
Fabregas told the Daily Mail ahead of Saturday's El Clasico with Real Madrid: "I never planned to go back this summer.
"It's true that they had offers and they told me about them but the only thing in my head was staying at Barcelona.
"I saw the stories and I spoke with Darren (Dein, his agent) and he said: 'What do you want to do?'
"I know that if a club come in for you and you tell your representative that you want to go, then you go. All that's missing is that the club accept the offer. It's easy.
"But at no time did I say that I wanted to go. It was clear in my mind that I wanted to succeed at Barcelona."
