The former Chelsea and Tottenham midfielder hit out at the club for selling Gaetan Laborde to Montpellier, and they have now sacked him

Gustavo Poyet has left Bordeaux after a disagreement with the club over a transfer conducted by the club.

The former Chelsea midfielder was angry that Gaetan Laborde was sold to Montpellier without his consent.

Indeed, Laborde was scheduled to meet his team-mates before their Europa League clash with Mariupol, but did not show. Poyet learned of his move by calling the player.

"I am not happy today. This is my worst day at this club," he said.
