Bayern Munich defender Sule: No regrets turning down Chelsea

Bayern Munich defender Niklas Sule has no regrets turning down Chelsea.

The 23 year-old chose Bayern ahead of a bigger offer from Chelsea when leaving Hoffenheim two years ago.

Sule recalled to Tz: "In the phase I had to listen to everything but then I knew that it would be a big step.

"But would I be playing?

"That's why it was a difficult decision back then: Should I go abroad now or prefer to take the step in my own country?

"When Bayern knocks, you think of course: If I reject them now, the opportunity may never come back. Because FCB can get every player it wants. I played a lot last season, this year too."
