Angel Rangel was happy to sign a new contract with Premier League new-boys Swansea City.
The Spanish defender inked terms earlier this summer.
Rangel told Absolute Radio: "Well I think it was the status I had in Swansea first of all, playing well as a right-back, week in, week out, and then the confidence with the manager as well.
"I had all that interest from other clubs in the Prem, but to be fair I enjoy my life in Swansea as well, and if you enjoy your football and your life I think it's the main thing. I didn't really want to leave for more money, just to start again at another club."
