Inter Milan boss Jose Mourinho hopes Adriano can join them to celebrate winning the Scudetto.

"I await him here for the Scudetto celebrations," smiled Mourinho after Adriano was released from his contract last week. "If we win, then he has won too. I am sad to see him go, though I hope he'll find the happiness he is looking for, the kind he couldn't find here.

"I see Adriano as a friend and a good lad. The Scudetto party will be the best chance to be together again."
