Roberto Ayala is threatening to refuse to play for Valencia unless the club grant him his wish to leave the Mestalla outfit.
Liga rivals Villarreal have bid for the Argentine's services, but their offer has been shunned by Valencia.
Valencia have stated the experienced defender can only leave for the right price, however Ayala is in no mood to wait patiently in the wings.
Ayala, who has already missed two days of training is threatening not to play for the club unless they allow him to leave.
"For us, the situation is clear," explained Ayala's agent Gustavo Mascardi to Radio Nou.
"Valencia have to allow Ayala to leave, or else he'll simply see out the last year of his contract without playing.
"I'm going to meet with Valencia's directors, because I do not understand their motives for rejecting Villarreal's offer.
"Ayala's desire is to go to Villarreal."
Ayala is not ruling out a switch to The Premiership, although his agent has stated his client will only join a prestigious club for the right deal.
"That question depends on the club and the money," Mascardi concluded on whether Ayala could be headed for England.
