Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini says he's sold Kyle Lafferty because "he's an out-of-control womaniser".
Lafferty moved to Norwich City this week.
"Lafferty is sold as a result of a precise request from my Coach Beppe Iachini," Zamparini told Radio 24.
"He is an out-of-control womaniser, an Irishman without rules. He is someone who disappears for a week and goes on the hunt for women in Milan.
"He has two families with six children, he never trains, he's completely off the rails. On the field he's a great player, because he gave us everything he had and more.
"In terms of his behaviour, however, he is uncontrollable. My Coach told me he cannot sort this player out, so he has to go."
