Chelsea's Portugal midfielder Deco has again confirmed that he would like to leave Stamford Bridge and join Jose Mourinho at Internazionale.

The 31-year-old scored three times in 30 appearances in his first season with the Blues, but made just two starts following the turn of the year.

Deco told the Corriere dello Sport: "I had a rather difficult season at Chelsea. I had a serious injury and I could not play my best football.

"I was hoping for something different. My agent, Jorge Mendes, has talked to the club and said that I am not happy at Chelsea. I know full well that I have a contract but I would like to leave.

"Are Inter my preferred destination? Yes, I am waiting and I would love for this deal to go through.

"I choose Inter because they are a club with a great history and because I would like to work again under a coach like Mourinho.

"We had two and a half fantastic years at Porto, during which we won all that we could."
