Thomas Meunier rejected a move to Chelsea

The Belgian right-back has today revealed that in order to cement his place in the starting lineup at Paris Saint-Germain, Meunier rejected a deadline day move to Chelsea. Dani Alves' arrival at PSG had made Meunier's future uncertain but the full-back decided instead to fight for his place.

Chelsea wanted a fullback as a cover for Victor Moses but after Meunier's rejection, decided to go for Davide Zappacosta. Talking to Eleven Sports, Meunier revealed, "I was expecting PSG to sign another right-back, but didn't foresee them getting Dani Alves. I could have left for Chelsea on the final day of the transfer window. But I didn't want to join them.I am happy at PSG and I don't want to leave."
