The Portugal international has been strongly linked with a move to the Premier League this summer and has been tipped to follow outgoing national team coach Luiz Felipe Scolari to Stamford Bridge.

On the move: Deco is set to leave Barcelona and Chelsea is a possible destination

"I know about the interest of Chelsea as well as other teams," said Deco after Portugal's elimination from Euro 2008 at the hands of Germany.

"But I still have to make a decision.

"I have to speak to Barcelona and soon there will be developments."

The 30-year-old is under contract at the Nou Camp until 2010 but the Catalan giants announced this week they no longer require Deco's services - a move which did not surprise the experienced midfielder.

"I knew that," said Deco, who has also been linked with Manchester United and Serie A champions Internazionale.

"It's natural for (new coach) Josep Guardiola to say that as he is the Barca coach and he makes the decisions."
