Mourinho wants to stay at Inter until 2012

LISBON: Inter Milan coach Jose Mourinho wants to see out his contract with the Italian champions and will only think about returning to his beloved Premier League after 2012, the Portuguese said on Thursday.

The ex-Chelsea coach, recently in England to spy on his former side ahead of Inter's meeting with them in the Champions League last 16, was quoted in the Sun earlier in the week as saying he was keen to work again in the Premier League.

"I was happy in England and when I went there I said one day I would go back. One day could mean 2012 or 2020," he told reporters at Inter's mid-season training camp in Abu Dhabi.
