The 32-year-old has been linked with a move to Brazilian side Fluminense.
He told Brazilian newspaper Lance: “It’s been 13 years since I left Brazil for playing in Europe.
“Now I want to go back home and play in my country because I have never been able to win a title there.
“I want to return to Brazil most of all because of personal reasons but I am still in contract at Chelsea and I have to resolve that. Without I doubt I know that I owe it to my career to win a title in Brazil.
“I want to have the chance to win a Brazilian domestic league title and a Copa Libertadores as I imagine that it must be a very strong sensation.
“I expect to have my situation resolved before July 26 for being able to travel to Brazil as soon as possible.”
