Coach Roberto Mancini says Jose Mourinho's presence for Inter–Sampdoria is 'not a problem'.
The Portuguese Coach has a meeting scheduled with the Nerazzurri's Honorary President Massimo Moratti and is being touted to replace Mancini in the summer, the same way he did once in 2008.
Mourinho will be in the standings to watch the game tomorrow evening at 19:45 GMT, but the current Biscione Coach claimed it wouldn't be an issue.
Coach Roberto Mancini says Jose Mourinho's presence for Inter-Sampdoria is 'not a problem'.
The Portuguese Coach has a meeting scheduled with the Nerazzurri's Honorary President Massimo Moratti and is being touted to replace Mancini in the summer, the same way he did once in 2008.
Mourinho will be in the standings to watch the game tomorrow evening at 19:45 GMT, but the current Biscione Coach claimed it wouldn't be an issue.
“Everyone is welcome,” Mancini told the Press. “Moratti invited him, and Moratti can do what he likes. It's not a problem.
“It's a delicate moment and even a game against the youth team would be difficult. We're facing a struggling Samp and the game won't be simple.
“[Alex] Telles only needs experience, he has great potential but these are things we'll discuss at the end of the year. [Yuto] Nagatomo loves Inter, he could have left for the Premier League in January but he chose to stay.
“I'm sorry about the two-match suspension for [Geoffrey] Kondogbia, I hope it can be reduced to one.”
Il Mancio was also asked about the state of mind of President Erick Thohir after the 2-1 defeat to Fiorentina.
“Of course, feelings are difficult to read after a defeat. He seemed relaxed, and confident that third place can be reached.
“Eder will not be affected by the fact that he has to play against [his former team] Sampdoria. Even though he hasn't scored yet, he has always been important.
“Eventually he'll get back to scoring. He's serious, he was a good signing.
“I remember back when I was third with Manchester City and we won a lot of games, now we must do the same to reach third place. The teams are different, but what matters is getting back our points.
“We have a number of options for the midfield. We'll call a player from the youth team, and one of the wingers can play in the middle.
“Felipe Melo? I hope he can go back to being the way he was at the beginning, when he was essential for his levels of experience and the quality of his game.”
