Notts County boss Kevin Nolan has admitted that he did not want to continue working with Stanley Aborah at the club, due to "the way he carries himself".
The Belgian, who signed for the Magpies in the summer of 2015, left Meadow Lane by mutual consent on transfer deadline day and is expected to rejoin Ricardo Moniz at Dutch club FC Eindhoven.
Aborah's time at Notts following Moniz's departure has been punctuated by spells in and out of the team as numerous managers opted not to make him a first-team fixture.
Nolan told the Nottingham Post: "Stanley has been here for a long time. If you look at his record, he hasn't had a great deal of games before I came in. He has fluttered about a lot of clubs in a lot of years.
"If I am being honest, I thought his training and the way he carries himself didn't suit me as a man. For me it was better that Stan and I parted ways.
"He's a lovely fella, but there were numerous opportunities when I asked a bit more from him and I just feel he didn't take it on board. It wasn't someone I wanted to continue to work with.
"I have to be honest because it's the best policy. As a player I wanted it (honesty), because if you are not highly thought of or wanted, then I wanted somebody to tell me to my face rather than behind my back."
