"I want to play at the highest possible level. I want to play major competitions. I know I still can, and I want to be happy doing the thing I love the most."
"Man United said they didn't want to sell me. They said if I wanted to go, I could, but they didn't need the money."
"The president of Al-Hilal called me and asked me if I wanted to move there... I talked to the gaffer and he asked me not to go."
