This follows a report from the French sports newspaper L’Équipe, which conducted an interview with Tudor on Wednesday.
During the interview, Tudor revealed that a player had been sent back to the locker room because he “was not making the necessary efforts.”
He said:
In my football, there is a feature, you have to run. And if you don’t… If I see one player that doesn’t run in training, I’ll say it once, twice and then on the third time of asking, I’ll intervene.”
