Former Barcelona star Ronaldinho insists he has no regrets over refusing a move to Manchester United in 2003.

The Brazilian legend was targeted by Manchester United during his time at PSG.

Ronaldinho who ended up joining Barcelona instead,told reporters in an interview: “I never saw myself in England.

“Yes, I could have played for another club, but I went to Barcelona because of my friendship with [then-president] Sandro Rosell. I could have played for Manchester United.

“My brother was already studying what I would do after PSG. I was a World Cup winner then, and that opened a lot of doors.

Ronaldinho also admits he rejected Chelsea during his Nou Camp stay, adding: “I don’t regret not having played in England, but it could have been special because it’s a fantastic league.
