Bonucci: I wanted to join Guardiola at Man City
Manchester City chose Leonardo Bonucci as one of their main targets of the transfer window but the Italian turned their offer down.
The 29-year-old revealed that he was thinking about joining the Premier League side but in the end he opted to stay in Italy.
City offered €50 million for Bonucci but it seems like this offer couldn't convince him completly.
"I did give it some thought. Guardiola's insistence destabilised me a little.
"I did not speak to Pep directly, it was just an exchange of thoughts with my agent. It was tempting, but I decided to follow my heart in the end.
"I opted to stay at a great team with big objectives. I want to end the project that we started in 2010 in the best way possible.
"We are in talks with the club [over a new deal]. The most beautiful thing for me is how Juventus have shown that I am very important for the club.
"This has motivated me to keep improving and to always give 110 per cent".
The Italian joined Juventus in 2010 from Bari for €15.5 million and his current contract ties him until 2020 to the club.
Do you think he repeats his decision?
