And with Chelsea midfielder and English international Frank Lampard (29) still wanted by Barcelona, a swap deal could be a possibility.

Catalan sports paper El Mundo Deportivo claims that AC Milan has contacted Jorge Mendes and Sergio Alves, the agents of Deco, to ask about the situation of the player, who is also followed by Newcastle.

Milan is aware of the interest of city-rivals Inter, who contacted Deco before through former Barcelona and Inter player Luis Suárez. The Italians would want to close the deal before former Chelsea manager José Mourinho joins Inter, since Deco would like to team-up with his former coach. Milan defensive midfielder Gennaro Gattuso (30) could be included in the deal.
