Younousse Sankhare: Bordeaux suspends Senegal midfielder

Ligue 1 club Bordeaux have suspended Younousse Sankhare for a week, for no official reason.

Sankhare became aware of the development on Thursday after he was unable to access the club’s parking lot and locker rooms.

The 29-year-old had appeared to be out of Paulo Sousa’s plans for the 2019-20 season after he was dropped from their opening four league games of the season.

He was expected to leave the club before the close of the transfer window alongside Thomas Carrique, Paul Baysse and Jonathan Cafu, but his move to Leganes collapsed due to financial issues.
