Nottingham Forest winger Callum Hudson-Odoi has revealed the reason behind his decision to leave Chelsea last year.
The England international was one of the best young wingers during his time at Chelsea, but his performances were inconsistent after an Achilles injury.
Hudson-Odoi was in-and-out of the starting line-up thereafter and he made the decision to join Forest at the start of last season.
The 23-year-old has now revealed that it was the right time to move on as he wanted to enjoy his football with regular minutes.
He said: “You have to recognise when it is the right time to move on. And that was my time.
“A case of I needed to get out of there. Not in a bad way but to go and find my football again and enjoy myself again.”
Hudson-Odoi has netted just one goal this season. It came in the surprise 1-0 Premier League win over Liverpool at Anfield.
