Portugal defender Pepe confirmed he was leaving
Real Madrid, but insisted he was yet to agree to a
deal with Paris Saint-Germain.
Pepe, 34, is out of contract at the end of the month
and wanted a two-year deal at Madrid.
But, after being offered just a one-year extension,
he has decided to move on from the club he joined
from Porto in 2007.
"It is clear that I will not continue at Real Madrid,"
he told Cope.
"One stage is over and, from now on, another one
will start."
Pepe helped Madrid to three LaLiga titles and three
Champions League crowns, but injuries saw him
make just 18 appearances in all competitions this
season.
He has been heavily linked with a move to Ligue 1
giants PSG and Serie A side Inter, but said he had
other options.
"There are more offers, also from England," Pepe
said.
Zinedine Zidane's Madrid enjoyed a spectacular
campaign that included winning LaLiga and the
Champions League.
But Pepe has plenty of questions over his exit,
saying: "I don't want to blame anyone. What Zidane
has done with Real Madrid is spectacular, but there
are things I don't understand.
"I didn't say goodbye to Zidane because Zidane
and Real Madrid knew I was going before I did."
