But the France defender rejected an offer from West Ham, but explained to La Media Carre: "In the period between the approaches from Bournemouth and West Ham, Monaco arrived and that hit me emotionally.

"I had three incredible years at Monaco. When they came in, all the memories came back. Monaco is home.

"I hoped that Chelsea would find a solution to allow me to leave on loan. I pushed until the last minute to go to Monaco."
