He told Le Parisien: "We had different ideas with the owner.

"I didn't announce it but, it's over. I have a pretty clear idea of ​​what I want to achieve in football. And if I can't apply my working method, I might as well stop.

"So it doesn't interest me anymore. It was in June that everything ended, but I hadn't communicated."
