The damaged relationship between striker Goran Pandev and Lazio continues, as the player has demanded to be reinstated back into the squad, according to Goal.com Italia.
The Macedonian had announced his desire to leave the club this summer, but president Claudio Lotito refuses to sell the 25-year-old at a bargain basement price and thus friction has been created between the two parties.
Recently, Pandev has been training separately from the rest of his team-mates and has now reportedly threatened legal action if he is not allowed back into the team.
"According to the effects of Arts. 7 and 12 AC, as a result of exclusion, I ask for immediate reinstatement in the first team within three days. Failing that, I will protect my own interests with the necessary actions," was the player's written message to the club.
Whether this means that Pandev is aiming for his contract to be torn up, is yet quite certain. He has been with the Biancocelesti since 2004, scoring nearly 50 goals in Serie A action.
Meanwhile, Lotito has responded by explaining the decision to keep the forward on the sidelines, saying it is because he is not included in the club's the Europa League list.
"If the coach must try the formations for the match on Thursday and Pandev cannot play, then it's normal to keep him on the sidelines," he stated to La Repubblica.
"Anyways, we know we are in the right and will be able to defend ourselves if necessary."
The dispute between the two parties is likely to continue until Pandev is allowed to find a new club.
