"I looked at everything from the bottom of the Premier League to the top of League One and have had a number of good friends putting out feelers for me.
"Obviously I looked at Sunderland with an incredible history, you call a club like Queens Park Rangers and you hear that they don't really need money.
"People were very confused down at Swansea.
"I looked at many things. Of course I looked very closely at Wigan, and all along Charlton kept looking the best opportunity.
"The entire foundation is literally perfect. You can take the club to anything you want to."
