Metz head coach Frédéric Antonetti has bemoaned the departure of Ghanaian defender John Boye from the club.

The 34-year-old became a free agent after leaving French Ligue 1 side FC Metz on 30 June 2021 after three successful seasons.

During his last spell in the 2020/2021 campaign, Boye was captain Metz and went ahead to make 35 appearances.
