Poborský takes time out from Sparta

Friday, September 23, 2005

Karel Poborský has joined second division SK Dynamo Ceské Budéjovice on loan after falling out with AC Sparta Praha coach Jaroslav Hrebík.

Public criticism
The 33-year-old Czech Republic international has gone to the 13th-placed team in the country's second division after being dropped from Sparta's first-team squad on Thursday for publicly criticising Hrebík's coaching techniques.

Three-month deal
Midfielder Poborský co-owns Dynamo and lives close to their Strelecký Ostrov stadium. He had been set to train alone following Sparta's decision to punish him, but will instead spend the next three months with Dynamo.
