Portugal schemer Deco is not planning to discuss his club future until after the European Championship.

Deco has been tipped to leave Barcelona over the summer, with reports claiming he has suggested Arsenal's Alexander Hleb as a suitable replacement for him at Camp Nou.

He has been linked with a £10million move to Chelsea and Internazionale, where his former Porto boss Jose Mourinho has recently been appointed coach.

The Brazilian-born midfielder expects Mourinho to continue his record of success at Inter, but refused to comment on whether he would also move to Giuseppe Meazza.

Nothing to prove

"I do not have to prove anything to anyone," said Deco on Sky Sports News

"I'm here to play for myself and for Portugal.

"My future is not defined at the moment. It's not right for me to comment.

"I know Mourinho is a great trainer. He won a lot with Porto and he won a lot for Chelsea, and for sure he will win a lot with Inter."
