Inter Milan boss Jose Mourinho accepts Adriano's decision to step away from the game.

"I don't really want to talk about it too much," Mourinho said simply.

"Inter have done everything they can to help him and so have I as a Coach and as a person.

"We will have to see what happens, but the important thing is that Adriano is happy like this.

"If we lose the player but gain the man then that is perfectly fine. But I haven't spoken to him and I hope we have the chance to discuss things further down the line."
