I was never close to signing for Manchester United, no.
I just want to get in the team and show all of them what I can do. (on signing for Manchester united)
I have felt part of this club when I have travelled all around the world and been recognised as a Manchester United player. And when you're a Manchester United player you will forever be a Manchester United player.
Manchester is obviously is a huge footballing city with Manchester City and Manchester United there - and I really like this accent because my agent is also from Manchester and my girlfriend's family is from Manchester.
I am very happy to be signing for the best team in the world and especially proud to be the first Portuguese player to join Manchester United.
One day I woke up and Juventus wanted me, another Manchester United and what I know is that there were approaches made. But an agreement was never reached and nothing was close.
Madrid and United are the two biggest clubs in the world and it’s a real 50-50. It could go either way. Manchester was my home and still is in my heart. I love it. Because when people treat you very well you never forget that. And I will never forget United, the people who work there and the supporters. So I am so happy to be going back to Manchester.
Of course I miss playing for Manchester United. I played there for six years and that’s a long time. I am still interested in watching Manchester United and, you never know, maybe in the future I could return to play there. It’s always possible. I want to fulfil my contract here but, in the future, only God knows. I will not say I am not happy here at Real Madrid. I am really happy and everyone knows this is my club but, of course, I miss Manchester United, the boss, the players, because I left family there.
I was very close to joining Manchester United.
With Manchester United I want to win. I therefore do not pay attention to what happens in other clubs, I'm totally focused on Manchester United.
I read about Zlatan Ibrahimovic in the newspapers. I would love for him to come to Manchester United; I've said this for a long time. He was born to play for Manchester United.
I'm not saying I've become institutionalised at Manchester United but my qualities have been at Manchester United.
It's true that an offer from Manchester United was on the table - I was really close to leaving Inter.
I think any player who joins Manchester United wants to win everything; I want to win every competition that Manchester United compete in.
I always say the biggest opponent for Manchester United is Manchester United. Every year I play for this club, I will say the same.
I think Manchester United is a much bigger club than any manager in the world, and the manager who comes in should respect what Manchester United is.
To be a Manchester United player, it requires a certain level of performance, mentality, and you have got to be proud to be a Manchester United player.
