Andrade Ready For Depor Exit
Quote:
Jorge Andrade believes that the time has come for him to leave Deportivo and has reiterated his desire to line up alongside compatriot Deco at FC Barcelona.
The Portugal international defender has been linked to a move to Camp Nou and Real Madrid, as well as receiving offers from other European outfits.
With Depor no longer challenging for honours, Andrade thinks that his transfer fee could help the club and a move would stui both himself and the club.
"I think that now is the opportune moment for everyone if a transfer goes through," he told Diario de Noticias.
"The time for me to leave has arrived."
The 29-year-old would welcome the chance to team up with Deco at Barça and refuted talk that the midfielder could be off-loaded by the Catalan giants this summer.
"I would love to play alongside Deco and find it hard to believe that he could leave," Andrade explained.
Paying tribute to his home for the last five years, Andrade added that wherever he goes he will always have fond memories of his time in A Coruña.
"It would be impossible to find a better city," he concluded.

Goal.com - Spain - Andrade Ready For Depor Exit
Andrade seems blissfully unaware that Deco could well be on his way out of Barca this summer.
Looks like it's either Andrade or Chivu for 12m Euros. Either one is good for Barca although right at this moment it looks like that Chivu is slightly more likely.
