Inter have also failed to win in their three league games and Italian news channel Libero suggest Mourinho’s agent Jorge Mendes is working on a move to San Siro.

Mendes has reportedly opened talks with Inter CEO Beppe Marotta over a possible return for Mourinho

Ex-Chelsea and Juventus manager Antonio Conte is also keen on replacing under-fire Spalletti as Inter boss.

Despite Conte’s interest, Mourinho, who managed Inter from 2008-2010 is also among possible candidates to replace Spalletti.

Interestingly, during his two seasons with Inter, Mouriho claimed the Serie A title tice in a role along with the Champions League in the second season.

But after winning five trophies in 24 months Mourinho moved on to Real Madrid.

Earlier, Legit.ng reported that Antonio Conte is linked with Inter Milan job in the Italian topflight.

Since he was axed at Chelsea Conte has been out of work as he was also interested in replacing Jose Mourinho at Manchester United.

Current Inter Milan gaffer Luciano Spalletti has been under serious pressure this season at the club after their defeat in the Coppa Italia to Lazio on penalties.
