Barça Mulling Deco For Lampard Swap Deal12/20/2005 3:58:00 AM
Barcelona are considering offering Deco to Chelsea in a bid to lure Frank Lampard to the Camp Nou next summer as the Catalan giants are already preparing for a summer spending spree.
Reports in both England and Spain have suggested that the Spanish champions want Lampard, but know that the only way the Blues could be tempted is if they offer a replacement in return.
Deco was a favourite of Jose Mourinho’s during his time at Porto with the Brazilian-born Portugal international one of the key men in the team’s league and European success.
The Spanish press have stated that Barça are deciding over the future of their playmaking midfielder and would prefer a player that can score more goals form midfield.
Lampard’s fiancee, Elen Rives, is from Barcelona and that could be a deciding factor in the England international deciding to force through a move to complete his dream of playing abroad.
Despite the rumours both Lampard and Deco have denied that they are willing to leave their current clubs.
"I am a Chelsea player, I am a very loyal player and I concentrate 100 per cent on the team, it is impossible for me to do anything else," the Chelsea star stated.
"I have a fantastic manager, fantastic team-mates around me that have helped me get to this position and I am looking forward to more success this year."
Deco admits that if Barça made it clear that he was no longer part of their plans then he would have to accept the decision to leave, but has no desire to leave under his own steam.
"I am very happy here," he said. "When the club no longer wants me I shall leave. At the moment, I think that I am still appreciated here.
"I admit that I did not start the season very well, but then neither did the team as a whole. Now things are better, they are going well
