West Ham United striker David di Michele admits he quit Torino because of coach Gianni de Biasi.
He said: "I know the president (Urbano Cairo) never wanted me to leave, but I left because of De Biasi and no-one else. Now I am only thinking of West Ham, but I thank Cairo for his admiration.
"I don't care what De Biasi says.
"I just want to do well here and then at the end of the year we will see what I can do."
