Internazionale president Massimo Moratti says he will take his time deciding whether coach Roberto Mancini stays with the Italian champions.

Speculation over Mancini's future at the Giuseppe Meazza has been rife ever since the coach signalled his intention to resign at the end of the season following his side's Champions League exit at the hands of Liverpool in March.

While he was quickly talked out of that decision, doubts have remained, with Jose Mourinho reportedly lined up for the Inter hot-seat and Mancini tipped for the now vacant Chelsea job.

But Moratti says he is in no hurry to clear up Mancini's future and refuses to put pressure on the former Italy international.

"Mancini? In truth I have planned no meeting. I fully intend not to rush him," Moratti told Radio Montecarlo.

Mancini, who has a contract until 2012, has become one of Inter's most successful coaches of all time, having guided the Nerazzurri to three straight scudettos.

But questions remain over his pedigree in the Champions League as Inter have been somewhat overshadowed by the European achievements of city rivals Milan in recent years.
