Inter<\/a> midfielder Wesley Sneijder<\/a> has dismissed claims that his \u00a3250,000 a week salary proved a stumbling block in a potential move to Manchester United<\/a> this summer.
<\/span><\/p>\n


The Dutchman has long been admired by Sir Alex Ferguson but a move to Old Trafford failed to materialise, with the playmaker saying he is now happy to remain in Italy.<\/p>\n

He was quoted as saying by The Mirror<\/em>: “For me, it was not so much a financial issue.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy feeling was that I was simply feeling very good at Inter. I love the club, but also the Italian culture and the people. It fits with me.”<\/p>\n

The former Real Madrid star admitted the interest was there from United, but said that after the sale of Samuel Eto’o Inter were unlikely to let him leave.<\/p>\n

\u201cI just felt that it was close, yes. We had several talks. The situation was such that Inter had to sell a player, either Samuel Eto\u2019o or me, and indeed there was interest,” he added.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey [Manchester United] are one of the biggest clubs in the world, so it didn\u2019t seem a bad thing, but at the same time I don\u2019t want to leave Inter.<\/p>\n

\u201cItaly is great for me, and I cannot exclude that they [United] got that feeling. For me, a move was not an absolute must and there were a few things which meant it did not happen.\u201d<\/p>\n
