Rothen launches tirade against Spurs fullback Aurier: Stop pretending! You make me laugh!

Former PSG star Jerome Rothen has hit out at Tottenham fullback Serge Aurier.

Over the weekend, Aurier declared he'd welcome the chance to return to PSG - a claim Rothen has scoffed at.

He told RMC: "It's always the same thought, lots of players tell you: it's the club of my heart etc. I have one thing to say to Serge Aurier. It makes me laugh, when he put on the Paris Saint-Germain jersey - he was very good pretty quickly.

"Afterwards, he got totally lost. When he insults the coach, the club, when he insults his teammates, there is more: it is my heart club. Because if it's really the club of your heart, you don't do what you did. Period.

"Let him stop selling the dream to supporters of Paris Saint-Germain by pretending to say I absolutely want to finish there. When you were there, you were not exemplary. So basta, it's over for you!"
