Chris Wood doesn't regret Leicester stay

Leicester City striker Chris Wood has no regrets staying at the King Power stadium.

The New Zealand international rejected the chance to join Wolves in August because he wanted to stay and fight for a place in the City side and prove he could be a success in the Premier League.

"I think I made the right decision in staying because I knew in my heart I wanted to stay and fight," said Wood, who scored on the opening day against Everton after going on as a substitute.

"I wanted to show what I am about and prove to everyone what I can do.

"I haven't had that chance yet but, hopefully, if I do get that chance, I can show them what I am all about.

"The gaffer has just told me to keep on going. I have worked hard in training and he said I have given him problems."
