Paris Saint-Germain full-back Thomas Meunier has revealed that he rejected the opportunity to join Chelsea during the summer transfer window.
The Belgium international was aware PSG were in the market for another right-back over the summer but he was not prepared for the signing of Dani Alves following the expiry of his Juventus contract.
The Brazilian's arrival left Meunier unsure of his long-term future at the Parisian club and led to him pondering a proposed move to Chelsea.
Meunier opted to stay in the French capital and fight for his place in Unai Emery's side and has since made seven Ligue 1 appearances this season.
"I could have left for Chelsea on the last day of the transfer window but I did not want to. I want to become the first choice by the end of the season."
