NANI has told Lazio's directors he wants to leave the club at the end of the season, according to reports in Italy.

The news comes on the back of reports he was involved with an altercation with a fan on the flight back from Cagliari after his side's disappointing 2-2 draw.

The former Manchester United man, 31, signed from Valencia on a season-long loan.

But Gazzetta dello Sport via report he has now told the club he has no intention of staying on beyond the end of the current campaign.

Lazio needed a last-gasp wonder strike from Ciro Immobile to rescue a point against the relegation-threatened Sardinians.

And some fans, who were travelling on the same flight as the players, were reported to have verbally attacked Nani.
