Man City star De Bruyne explains rejecting PSG

Manchester City midfielder Kevin de Bruyne has explained turning down PSG in 2015.

After making a name for himself at VfL Wolfsburg, De Bruyne signed for City - though admits they weren't his only option.

He told Sky Sports: "The main teams involved were Manchester City, Bayern Munich and PSG.

"At first it was: 'I don't know what to do'. Do I have to stay in Wolfsburg? Go to England? PSG is a big club, but the championship is not attractive.

"You take many things into consideration, but in the end, I was more interested in Manchester City."
