France defender Mamadou Sakho claims that he would not have changed his decision to move to Liverpool from Paris Saint-Germain "for anything in the world".

France defender Mamadou Sakho has claimed that he would not have changed his decision to come to Liverpool "for anything in the world".

The 23-year-old, who joined the Reds from Paris Saint-Germain in September for a fee of £18m, insists that he already feels settled at Anfield.

"I wouldn't have changed my choice for anything in the world," Sakho told The Guardian. "My decision to come to Liverpool has been fantastic for me. I haven't been here very long at all, but I've settled in well.

"It was always going to be hard because I've only ever known one club and been a one-club person before coming here, so that makes things a bit more difficult, but I've been prepared to go and ask advice from everyone - my team-mates, coaches and the manager.

"I've asked them a lot about the game here, my family has settled in, it's going well."

Sakho, who scored twice for France in their World Cup playoff win over Ukraine on Wednesday, was an unused substitute during Liverpool's 3-3 draw at Everton on Saturday.
