Wolfsburg star, Andre Schurrle, has revealed the reasons behind leaving Chelsea in the Winter window.
The World Cup winner left Stamford Bridge on Transfer Deadline Day in a deal worth £24million, which then allowed Chelsea to sign Juan Cuadrado from Fiorentina for £26m.
Schurrle struggled for game-time in West London due to the competition for places in the attacking-midfield department, and he has revealed that the lack of game-time was a real factor behind his decision to leave.
“I wanted to stay but the last weeks or last month I tended towards changing something because I wanted to do what is fun for me and that is to play football,” the 24-year-old said.
“I could only do it briefly at Chelsea in the past weeks.”
“I will never regret this,” he added.
“I still love this club, the staff are amazing. I developed my game, I improved myself there. I was a different player when I came to Chelsea. It helped me a lot.”
