N'Diaye no problems with Di Canio
Sunderland midfielder Alfred N'Diaye insists he had no problems with manager Paolo di Canio.
N’Diaye agreed a shock season-long loan with Turkish side Eskisehirspor last month.
N’Diaye told the Sunderland Echo: “There was no problem with the coach.
“We talked about my expectations because I need playing time, so it was agreed to my loan and I chose Turkey. I arrived in the winter and everything went well.
“I loved my team-mates, fans and also the coaching. But there was a change of coach with the arrival of Di Canio.
“So I talked with him to know what he planned for me because I’m at an age where I need to play.
“He could not guarantee me playing time so I was hoping that a loan would be agreed.”
