Defender Fabio Da Silva has left Middlesbrough to pen a three-year deal with Nantes.
In 2016, Fabio departed Cardiff City to sign for Middlesbrough and he has made 54 appearances for the North-East outfit in all competitions.
The 28-year-old featured for Boro during their Championship playoff defeat to Aston Villa in May, but head coach Tony Pulis has opted to part ways with the Brazilian.
I want to say a big thank you to everyone @Boro Staff, players, most of all the fans. I tried to do my best every day and give my all, I hope you can return to the Premier League very soon. Thank you, you will always be in my heart. Up the Boro #UTB pic.twitter.com/qhburju2v1

Fabio brings to an end a decade-long spell in English football, during which he has also represented Manchester United and Queens Park Rangers.
The full-back joins a club in Nantes who finished in ninth place in Ligue 1 last season.
