Newcastle United captain Fabricio Coloccini is reportedly eager to leave the club in the January transfer window.
The 30-year-old's father recently claimed that the defender was looking to return to his native Argentina with former team San Lorenzo.
The centre-back's representatives flew to Newcastle on Wednesday to tell the Magpies that he wanted to move by the end of the month, according to The Independent.
Coloccini is currently the highest-paid player at St James' Park with an annual salary of around £3m.
