Nainggolan: 'I rejected an offer from the Premier League'
- Mirko Laurenti
Radja Nainngolan spoke to ESPN microphones about an eventual experience in Premier League.
“Chelsea in the summer of 2017 offered me more money than Italy and for sure it is a great club. But I want to wake up in the morning in a place where I feel good, and I did not want to throw away all the respect I have deserved in 12 years in Italy and for which I worked so hard. There are so many components to evaluate. There was also Manchester United, but I did not care. If you want to watch a football show, you obviously watch the Premier League. The stadiums are full, the fields perfect and the rhythms high. In England football is not as tactical as in Italy. If they ask me where I want to play, I could say in Premier, but I've been here in Italy for so long that I do not need to change anything.” Later he answered a question about the situation in his club. “Inter? Now I've come to a club that wants to build something big, so I think I'm in the right place".
