Barnsley winger Jennings values Bayern Munich experience

Barnsley winger Dale Jennings has no regrets over his time at Bayern Munich.

Jennings hit the winner against Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

He said: "I learnt a lot. The German style of football is a lot different and it's good to add different parts to your game.

"I was injured for nine months in my first year and I just knew it wasn't meant to be.

"I had a year left on my contract and I wasn't really getting in and around the first team as much as I'd have liked.

"For my career, I thought it was best to come back home instead of wasting another year.

"The experience will stay with me forever. A lot of people ask if I regret it but, even though it didn't go as planned, I'll never regret a second of it. I'd have regretted it more if I didn't go.

"I'm happy I went. I gave it everything I could. It's just the injuries. I had a bit of bad luck. Hopefully I can do well over here and I can push on."
