The 26-year-old fell down the pecking order at Giuseppe Meazza, as his partying lifestyle affected both his form and discipline.

The former Flamengo man showed up late for training and under the influence of alcohol on more than one occasion and Mourinho seems to have had enough of the player's reckless behavior.

Adriano himself announced his intention to find a new club in January. However, Inter president Massimo Moratti is keen to loan out the player rather than sell him.

Moratti also confirmed that Adriano will not be allowed to join another Serie A side.

Adriano joined Inter from Flamengo in 2001, before he went on loan to Fiorentina and was co-owned by Parma between 2002 and 2004.
