He was quoted as telling Marca: “It’s true that I don’t like that treatment for my colleagues, especially for Victor, who has been a reference as a teammate and as a professional. I don’t believe it’s fair but it didn’t influence my decision.
“I just saw that Manchester didn’t take that step, that they were taking too long and I needed a team to start. Chelsea were more decisive.”
Pedro also said Valdes praised Manchester United’s global stature and was glowing in praise of the English club.

He continued: “He told me that the club [United] was very good and there was a great fan following, that his only problem was the situation with the coach.”
The Chelsea winger also refuted claims that Valdes told him to join Chelsea instead of Manchester United.
He said: “Absolutely not. He spoke very well of the club. It’s a great club but I believe I have chosen well to join Chelsea, I’m convinced.
“I had an important chat with [Chelsea coach Jose] Mourinho, who told me that he wanted me, that with me they would have a better team and he said many things that I liked to hear. That combined with the possibility to live in London was what made me decide.”
