Leicester defender De Laet: Leaving Man Utd was right decision

Leicester City defender Ritchie de Laet has no regrets leaving Manchester United in the summer.

The Belgium international admits United manager Sir Alex Ferguson wanted him to stay.

"After three years in the stands at Old Trafford, it was the time for me to play. Therefore I chose Leicester City over another season at Manchester United. I do not regret it, I've immediately been a starter for Leicester City.

"Now I play every week," De Laet told Voetbal Primeur.
