Taye Taiwo seeks Milan exit

AC Milan defender Tayo Taiwo has revealed that he is seeking a move away from AC Milan in the upcoming January transfer window.

The Nigerian only joined the Italian giants in the summer but has hinted he is ready to leave the San Siro after failing to feature on a regular basis this season.

Taiwo has attributed his lack of game time to a poor relationship with Milan boss Massimo Alegri, who he believes does not have any faith in him.

"Every day I suffer more and more because I am not given the chance to play," the 26-year-old told L'Equipe.

"It seems clear to me that I don't have the confidence of Allegri. Staying under these conditions is not possible for me."

The former Marseille man has only made six appearances for Milan this campaign.
