Renato Sanches has revealed the reasons behind his decision not to join Manchester United last summer, claiming he opted instead to play under Carlo Ancelotti with 'world-class' stars.
The Bayern Munich midfielder lit up Euro 2016 with Portugal, being named Young Player of the tournament out in France to pave the way for a £30million move from Benfica to the Bundesliga champions.
Jose Mourinho had hoped to make Sanches one of his first signings at Old Trafford after his appointment, but the 19-year-old has revealed why he snubbed a move to the Premier League.
'[Bayern] really put in a lot of effort and I immediately got a feeling the people in charge believed in me as a player.
