Wright slams Koscielny: ‘You should be ashamed’

August 7, 2019 0 By HearthstoneYarns

Ian Wright has slammed Laurent Koscielny over the “disrespect” he has shown to Arsenal over the way he revealed his move to Bordeaux.

The 33-year-old defender signed for the French club on Tuesday having refused to travel on Arsenal‘s pre-season tour to the USA as he tried to secure a transfer.

His unveiling video also angered some Gunners fans – and former striker Wright – after he took off an Arsenal shirt to reveal a Bordeaux strip underneath.

“This hurts,” Wright wrote on Twitter. “The level of disrespect. You should be ashamed for the way you’ve left the club after 9 years!

“Got what you wanted and still trying to have a dig. Hope it’s worth it in the long run.”

In another tweet, Wright added: “So unnecessary. 9 years and you do this…makes no sense.”

Following the move, Koscielny took to Instagram to thank Arsenal fans: “After nine years spent at Arsenal, I took the decision to leave. I have spent wonderful years with this club, nine years during which I learned, evolved, grew up.

“This experience made me the player I am today. My decision to leave has been discussed for months with my club, my team-mates, my coach, and it has been a well-thought decision.

“I see this departure like a new turning point in my life as a player but also in in my life as a man and a family man.

“However I hope you understand, and in any case I cannot be thankful enough for these years past at Arsenal. I am aware of everything that the club and you supporters have brought to me.

“But it is time for me to go home so today my will is to join the @girondins (Bordeaux). This is a new challenge that I count on taking with determination.”
