I believe he truly does want to stay with Porto, however, in reality, a move will likely still happen.
Enrique Cerezo (Atl. Madrid's President) says they have given up on trying to acquire Quaresma because Porto does not want to sell him: http://diariodigital.sapo.pt/news.asp?section_id=126&id_news=252497

Quaresma to Chelsea...? http://www.goal.com/en/Articolo.aspx?ContenutoId=204151 Mourinho would bury Quaresma behind the other wingers... Unless he could get a starting position over Joe Cole and Robben...I rather him go somewhere else in reality. I wonder how much the mighty Chelsea would offer up for him...
Supposedly Rui Costa has mentioned Quaresma's name to AC Milan. :http://diariodigital.sapo.pt/news.asp?section_id=126&id_news=257468
Well they've been playing 4-4-2 Diamond midfield for a while.... they dont play with out and out wingers and alot of Italian teams do not.
