Blues midfield star wants out
Chelsea star Deco wants out. According to reports the little Portuguese midfielder wants to finish his playing career in Brazil, the land where he grew up. "I want to go back to Brazil. I still have a couple of good years of high-level football in me but I want to be near my kids," said the 32-year-old on Monday. He added: "Ideally, I'd like to go after the World Cup and I've been talking to Chelsea about it." The former Porto and Barcelona star has one year left on his contract. He has played regularly under Blues boss Carlo Ancelotti. Flamengo are among the teams to have expressed an interest in Deco, who plans to quit international football after representing Portugal at the 2010 World Cup.
