Leonardo Bonucci could have strengthened Manchester United last summer, but the desire to wear the Juventus shirt again was greater. After one season in the Milan team, the experienced defender decided to request a transfer back to Juventus. The Rossoneri agreed to certain conditions and sold the Italian for 35 million euros. L. Bonucci revealed that a few years ago he had received interest from both Manchester clubs. "In fact, there was a possibility of moving to both Man City and Man Utd," the defender told the Daily Telegraph. "In 2016, when I received an offer from Man City, I talked about it with Juventus, but after some consultations, I decided it would be better for me to stay in Turin." "This year I heard that there was a possibility to return home (to Turin), so I immediately told myself that I would reject all other offers and do everything to be a Juventus player again," added the defender. Finally, when asked if there was a chance to join Jose Mourinho's camp in the summer of 2018, L. Bonucci simply answered "yes."
