Transfer: Jose Mourinho Set To Become Inter Milan Manager

The former Chelsea and Manchester United boss led the Serie A club to the treble in 2010 and has been lined up for a possible return to Italy after a meeting has been fixed between him and Inter director Beppe Marotta in Milan.

The Portuguese coach led Inter Milan to their historic treble, including the Champions League in 2010 and could now replace under pressure coach Luciano Spalletti.

However, Mourinho turned down an approach from Benfica shortly after he was sacked by Manchester United in December and is thought to be taking a break from football before returning in the summer.

According to the club's former owner Massimo Moratti, Mourinho would be welcomed back to Inter Milan. 

Moratti, who was at the helm of affairs in 2010 and is still influential at the San Siro said: “Would I like Mourinho back at Inter? Yes, I’m very fond of him.”

"However, we’ll give time to Spalletti to prove his worth. Diego Simeone? I love him too, but Mou is special.”
