Inter Milan president Erick Thohir is adamant Roberto Mancini's position is not in doubt.

Thohir is now minority shareholder and spoke to the official club website ahead of the team's US summer tour.

“I'm looking forward to meeting Roberto Mancini and the players again next week," said the President.

“I've been keeping an eye on proceedings at the training camp in Brunico and I watched our first two friendlies.

“I know the players are working very hard to build up fitness levels ahead of a demanding season, which will see us playing on the European stage once again as well as in Serie A and the Coppa Italia.

“Lots of things have been written about Roberto Mancini in Italy. I've been in contact with him over the last few days and I'll be meeting him in the States, but I would like to repeat what I've said on previous occasions and always thought – that Roberto is our star player."
