Olympique Marseille fullback Jordan Amavi admits he's had offers to return to the Premier League.

The former Aston Villa defender, 27, signed a new deal with OM earlier this summer.

"I'm 27, I could have left, clubs were interested (in the Premier League), I had great offers. If it was a question of income, I would have left, to be quiet, to have my salary," said Amavi.

"I have never been like this. It was not my desire. Since it lasted, I could see some things on social networks like 'he does not want to extend to go free' or 'he is not happy with his salary'.

"People weren't in my place. I took everything into account, that of the club, in the end."
