Real Madrid midfielder Mateo Kovacic has ruled out a return to Inter Milan.

Kovacic says he won't return to Inter while Roberto Mancini is in charge.

"I will not come back with Mancini on the bench," he said.

"With him I had a strange relationship, but these things are mine and there's no need to talk ...."

Kovacic added: "AC Milan or Juve, you never know what will happen in the future."
