"Monaco" defender Fabinho admitted to being disappointed that his represented club did not agree to engage in discussions with European giants interested in him during the summer.
"Monegasques" sold Kylian Mbappe, Bernardo Silva, Tiemoue Bakayoko, and Benjamin Mendy during the last transfer window, but did not agree to let the Brazilian go to a wealthier club.
Reliable sources constantly reported that the 24-year-old footballer was being courted by "Manchester United" and "Paris Saint-Germain."
"It was not easy during the transfer window, as I was not sure if I would stay," Fabinho told Nice Matin.
"I was closer to leaving than to staying."
"Playing in such a context was not good. My thoughts were elsewhere."
"Subconsciously, I did not give all my strength. I tried not to leave a bad impression, I could never do that."
"At the end of the transfer window, I was disappointed, but I have already turned the page."
Despite all these events, Fabinho remains an integral player for "Monaco." However, rumors will continue to swirl around him next summer, as his contract with the club is only valid until 2019.
