A midfielder, he played eight games in Ligue 2 for Le Mans at the start of his career before representing clubs in lower divisions.

As a manager, he led Entente to promotion to the Championnat National in an eight-year spell, eliminating Montpellier of Ligue 1 from the Coupe de France in 2019 before being relegated and leaving. With Red Star, he eliminated top-flight Nantes in a run to the last 16 of the cup in 2021 before being sacked that September.

==Playing career== Born in Coulaines, near Le Mans in Sarthe, Bordot got his break in football when Marc Westerloppe saw him play in a Division d'Honneur match for his local team and gave him a trial for Le Mans FC's reserve team in the fifth-tier CFA 2. Bordot frustrated the club for his lack of commitment, but Westerloppe gave him one last chance, and gave him his professional debut on 29 April 1998 in a Ligue 2 game against OGC Nice.<ref name=parisien>{{cite news |last1=Tournoux |first1=Gilles |title=National : quand Westerloppe lançait la carrière du coach de l’Entente|trans-title=National: when Westerloppe launched the career of Entente's coach|url=https://www.leparisien.fr/sports/ile-de-france/national-quand-westerloppe-lancait-la-carriere-du-coach-de-l-entente-12-12-2018-7967214.php |access-date=14 May 2024 |work=Le Parisien |date=12 December 2018 |language=French}}</ref>

==Personal life== Bordot said in 2022 that he was tired of being incorrectly referred to as a Parisian manager, having spent all of his managerial career in the capital city's region.

He also said that he was approached by Annecy and US Orléans in 2021.<ref name=derange/>
