“I wanted to come back to Italy, it was definitely worth it and the club knows I turned down other offers,” the Argentine told Sky Sport Italia.

“I decided to help a team that was challenging for important targets. West Ham was a mistake and I didn’t think it through. The Premier League is fun and obviously the wages are very different, so that swayed my decision at the time.

“We won and must continue like this. The team has important players and we have to prove our worth.”
