Speculative voices claimed the former Nerazzurri boss, who delivered a Scudetto, Coppa Italia, and Champions League treble last year, would be back in office in place of Leonardo.
The noise behind the rumors became further noticeable when Javier Zanetti said the doors were always open for Mourinho shortly after reports claimed the coach had enrolled his children in a school near the Italian club’s training ground.
However Moratti appears to have ended the debate by claiming there are no engagements to bring back his former ally.
“I saw the news in the papers, but there is nothing with Mourinho,” he told the press.
One win in five games has left Leonardo’s future looking suspect, but the chief said Inter’s recent failures were down to fatigue rather than tactical choices.
“The coach does what is necessary and he is doing well in my opinion, but it’s not easy to halt a situation like this,” he added.
“We were very tired, following the international fixtures last month we expected the maximum, but we were tired. The situation has not changed with Leonardo.”
Inter meet Roma in the first leg of their Coppa Italia semifinal on Tuesday night.
