Thorgan Hazard: 'I needed to be playing football'

Thorgan Hazard has no regrets over leaving Chelsea as he now gets regular first-team football with current club Borussia Monchengladbach.

Thorgan Hazard has hinted that leaving Chelsea was the right thing for him to do as he now gets regular first-team football with current club Borussia Monchengladbach.

The 22-year-old joined the Blues from French side Lens just a month after older brother Eden made his move to Stamford Bridge in 2012.

After two seasons at Belgian side Zulte Waregem, the Belgian was sent on loan to Monchengladbach and impressed in his 41 appearances for the German club, going on to make his move permanent.

Hazard told The Sun: "It is important to be playing. I'm 22 and I need to play and learn. I am learning a lot with this team. Sometimes it is difficult but in the last two years I have played a lot of games."

Monchengladbach finished third in the Bundesliga last season but made a nightmare start to the current season, with manager Lucien Favre quitting after they lost their opening five games.
