Alex Moreno explains why he rejected Nottingham Forest

Alex Moreno was very close to leaving Betis during the last transfer window. Nottingham Forest made an offer of more than 15 million euros, including fixed and variable payments, and Betis were unable to refuse. However, the full-back refused the English side's offer to remain with the reigning Copa del Rey champions. 

The full-back spoke to 'Marca' about his decision: "I decided to stay because of the project. It is true that Forest were also interesting, it was a step in my career, but the fans and what is being built...", the player replied. 

The player commented on the importance of the feelings factor: "It was above all because of the days I had lived, the affection I receive and the importance I have in this team. I feel very comfortable, very comfortable, I have a life here, family, etc.".

"The affection of the people around me is what made me stay and continue to grow at Betis. It's been four years, the feeling is very strong and I'm just another Betis player," said the Spanish footballer.
