Gabriel Heinze is determined to battle for the right to leave Manchester United after the Premier League blocked his move to Liverpool.
A three-man panel decided United were able to block Heinze's move to Anfield, ruling the club were not obliged to sell him.
However, the 29-year-old - who still has two years left on his contract at Old Trafford - is set to appeal against the verdict and insists he wants to be free to choose his employer.
He told the Daily Mail: "My fight is for the freedom to negotiate with any club.
"United never wanted me to leave for one of the big clubs but this anti-Liverpool clause is incredible."
Reports have linked Heinze with a move overseas to the likes of Real Madrid or Lyon but he claims he is in limbo.
"I still don't have a clear future," he said. "I have not spoken with Lyon because I believed my option was Liverpool.
"I would like a solution. Not playing would be negative for me and also the club."
