33 year old English central midfielder, Jonjo Shelvey on signing for a UAE Club.
"l've since seen a few things like he's gone there for money. I'm thinking what money? There's no money in the UAE Second Division League.""The ballpark of the standard wage here is £2,000-a-month for a footballer. In terms of what I've earned throughout my career, that's nothing."
"My brother earns more working in a hotel in London, so it was never about coming here for the money."
"I've had my time. I'm happy and content. I'm just at the stage now where I want to enjoy football. It's about waking up, enjoying what I do and spending time with my family."
"If I'm honest, I don't want my children growing up in England any more. We're very lucky that we lived in a nice part of the UK but where I'm from, originally, you can't have nice things in my opinion."
"I'd never wear a watch in London any more. You can't have your phone out in London, in my view."
