Inter Milan chief Ernesto Paolillo has ruled out a return for Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho.

Paolillo said to Italian radio station CRC: "Ranieri is proving to be the coach that we thought he was, that is a great coach.

"Hence, Ranieri will remain at Inter until he wants to. Mourinho to Inter? Absolutely not.

"This period and this chapter says Ranieri, so it's useless to talk about things that don't make sense.

"Ranieri knows how to do his job very well and that is why we want to keep him."
