Earlier on Monday, Zidan reiterated his frustration by the lack of first team football at Dortmund as he eyes a quick exit from Signal Iduna Park.
�Since my injury (in April 2010), I have never got a chance. Therefore I would like to leave in January rather than wait until the summer,� Zidan, whose contract ends in June, was quoted by ruhrnachrichten.
�I have no intention of spending six more months on the bench.�
Dortmund sporting director Michael Zorc responded to Zidan�s comments conceding that the Egyptian is �understandably unhappy� and that the situation will be assessed soon.
