Striker claims a lack of respect
Brazilian striker Fred says he wants to leave Lyon.
The 23-year-old has won successive Ligue 1 titles but now feels his time at the Stade Gerland is up.
The forward blames the club officials for his decision, claiming they no longer respect him.
"I don't want to wear the Lyon shirt anymore," Fred told newspaper O Dia.
"I feel I am not respected by the officials like I should be.

"I don't have any problems with my team-mates and with the supporters because they have been with me since the first day I arrived but now I feel that my time at Lyon has come to an end.
"I don't have the same relationship that I used to have with the president and that's why I am taking the decision of leaving Lyon."
Fred recently angered the champions by twice opting to ignore the club regarding his recent injury problems.
He decided to shun Lyon and instead travelled to South America in order to receive rehabilitation treatment.
