Deco not joining Scolari at Blues
June 13 2008
Deco's agent has denied speculation the Barcelona playmaker is poised to link up with Portugal coach Luiz Felipe Scolari at Chelsea.

The Brazil-born duo have enjoyed a good working relationship with the Portuguese national team, although that is due to end after Euro 2008 with Scolari set to take charge of the Blues on July 1.

Deco is out of favour at the Nou Camp but, according to his representative Acaz Fellegger, that does not mean the midfielder is poised to move to Stamford Bridge.

"Deco is still under contract with Barcelona, even though everyone knows that he will leave the club," said Fellegger.

"Deco was also linked with Inter Milan, and now with Chelsea, but it is all speculation. There is nothing in it."

The 30-year-old said earlier this week he would like to work with Scolari at club level: "He is a coach with whom I have a great trust and a relationship that is impossible to better."
