Fed-up Crespo ready to quit Inter Milan: This can't go on

Hernan Crespo is ready to quit Inter Milan after admitting frustration with his lack of minutes this season.

"I am not angry with (Jose) Mourinho. He is a great Coach, it's just that my case should've been dealt with better, there's no doubt about that" he told Gazzetta dello Sport.

"Nobody explained to me the reasons behind my exclusion from the Champions League side. I am not a kid and can understand things.

"I train every day, put the effort in and try to get the attention of the Coach. Then he makes the choices and I respect them, because that's the way I was taught.

"I have never dreamed of protesting against a tactician's decisions and I'm not going to start now. Having said that, I would like to play a few more minutes of football."

The Argentine striker added: "We'll see what happens, I'll make my decision in January. I am 33 years old, so I have to consider many elements. I certainly still feel like a player and therefore want to play. If I am locked down here, then I'll seek another solution.

"I don't know about clubs interested in me and don't want to talk about it right now. The only thing I will say is that I don't want to be in the stands any more. That's not too much to ask, is it?"
