Jaap Stam will quit Milan in order to return to his native Holland, according to his agent.

The Rossoneri defender is presently under contract until 2007, although reports in Italy suggest that he may request a transfer during the summer.

Now his agent Henk van Ginkel has confirmed Stam's intention to quit Milan, saying: "Jaap is under contract with the Rossoneri until 2007 but he wants to return to his native land in order to dedicate himself to his family.

"Two teams have already said they are interested in him. We will speak to Milan and see what happens."

It is thought that PSV and Heerenveen would both be keen to land the big Dutchman should he choose to quit the Giuseppe Meazza.
