LONDON, Nov 8, 2009 (AFP) - Sir Alex Ferguson revealed Sunday how he turned down numerous offers to manage foreign clubs during his Manchester United career.

The 67-year-old, who has won two Champions League trophies and 11 Premier League titles, said that he had never been seduced by any of the offers.

"I've had offers from clubs to go abroad, but I've never been tempted by them," Ferguson told the News of the World.

"I am not going on record to say who they are, but you'd be surprised by the names.

"It flies over your head and you get on with life. You don't leave Manchester United."

The United manager has spent the past 23 years at Old Trafford.
