Manchester United. So my head was never turned to go anywhere else. "You tell someone from Manchester United or a team that's winning things that they could go abroad and
you would be hard pressed to get them to go. "If Gareth Bale had been at Manchester United and winning trophies he wouldn't have gone to Real Madrid.
I was just turned on by winning. I wasn't interested in going anywhere else." Ferdinand eventually moved to QPR this summer after his contract at United expired
