Antonio Cassano wants AC Milan exit

AC Milan striker Antonio Cassano has reportedly told the club that he wants to leave the San Siro.

Cassano is supposedly unhappy with the Rossoneri after selling key players Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Thiago Silva to Paris Saint-Germain as well as releasing a number of veterans such as Alessandro Nesta.

Milan manager Massimiliano Allegri told reporters that Cassano wants to leave the club but isn't sure why.

"Cassano asked to leave the club, Galliani was very clear: If he stays, then he'll be a Milan player," said Allegri.

"Why Cassano wants to leave the club? He knows, not me. A player must only stay on at a club if they want to."

Cassano has been linked with Inter Milan in a potential swap deal with Giampaolo Pazzini.
