French midfielder weighing up offers from England and Italy

Olivier Dacourt expects to secure a move away from Inter Milan during the January transfer window. The combative French midfielder has fallen out of favour at the Serie A giants, with coach Jose Mourinho unwilling to hand him regular football. As a result, the 34-year-old admits the time has come for him to seek a new challenge elsewhere. The former Leeds and Everton man has revealed that he has offers from England and Italy to consider, with a move to Bolton widely touted in recent weeks. "I have started to think about a departure," Dacourt told RMC radio station.

Decisions

"It is the coach's choice. I am on nodding terms with Mourinho - that is all. "His decisions have been difficult to take. I was in the starting XI before his arrival. "I told myself it was up to me to change his mind. He doesn't seem to have faith in me, though, and I have noted that. "I have propositions from Italy and England. Not from France. But we will have to see what happens. "I want to play and have fun, which is essential at this stage of my career."
