Argentine midfielder Juan Sebastian Veron has walked out on Manchester United according to a report in today's News of the WorldThe newspaper said that Veron was involved in a bust-up with team mates after United's Champions League elimination against Bayer Leverkusen on Tuesday and had flown to Rome with his family.
"He was prepared to stay at United but this bust-up is the final straw and he will not be coming back," the newspaper quoted a close friend of Veron as saying.
"Sebastian is fed up of being blamed for everything and he is extremely angry at the treatment he has received at the hands of some United players.
"He has made it clear to the club that it would be best for all concerned if they can agree a fee with Lazio and secure his return to Rome."
Lazio president Sergio Cragnotti is still keen to bring the midfielder back to the Italian Serie A club.
Veron, who joined United from Lazio for British record 28 million pounds ($40.4 million) last July, has been repeatedly linked with a return to Rome where he still has a house, but the English premier league club have always denied the speculation.
Although Veron helped United reach the Champions League semifinals, he has not always lived up to his reputation as one of the world's most talented midfielders with some inconsistent performances for the English champions.
But United boss Alex Ferguson has consistently defended Veron against the critics.
Veron said last month that he was happy at Manchester United and that only his former club Lazio could ever tempt him back to play in Italian football.
