Smicer bound for Bordeaux

ISTANBUL hero Vladimir Smicer has signed a two-year contract with Bordeaux.

The Czech international passed a medical at the Parc Lescure yesterday
and agreed terms on his switch from Anfield.

"Bordeaux is a beautiful seaside city and Les Girondins were always at
the top of the French league," the 32-year-old said. "The last season
was not ideal for them. They will want to get back to the top and I will
be glad to be able to help them."

Smicer revealed Bordeaux had been interested in acquiring his services
last summer but the player had to have an operation on a knee injury.

He added: "Out of all the offers I had, I like this one the most.

"Bordeaux wanted me last year after the European Championships but I was
sidelined for half a season. Their interest remained and that is the
most important thing for any player when seeking a transfer."

Smicer spent three years at Lens before moving to Anfield for
£4.2million in 1999.
