West Ham star Vladimir Coufal was sent home from the Czech Republic team for violating team rules.

A statement was released by the Czech camp on Sunday morning saying three players had been sent away.

Coufal was one alongside Jakub Brabec and Jan Kuchta.

The statement read: "Three players of the national team fundamentally violated the internal rules of the national team on Saturday night.
