Girondins de Bordeaux – Ligue 1: captain Laurent Koscielny will leave the club

Two years after landing in Gironde, Laurent Koscielny is already packing his bags. The 36-year-old former international has reportedly reached an agreement with the club, the team announced on Saturday. The club’s president and owner, Gérard Lopez, announced his departure at the end of January. The former Arsenal defender is leaving through the back door when he had the ambition to raise a club on the decline for a few years. In recent weeks, discussions have focused on his big contract: the club had to pay him €5m to release him of his last two years of optional contract. According to our colleagues, it is on this subject that they would have found common ground. The native of Tulle could join Lorient, the club in which he was trained.
