Inter CEO Ernesto Paolillo believes the club will have a new coach in place within a few days, but was reluctant to reveal who is likely to take over at San Siro.

The appointment is still shrouded in mystery, with Sinisa Mihajlovic having ruled himself out of the running on Saturday night, leaving the 2009-10 treble winners hoping to convince Porto boss Andre Villas-Boas to move to Serie A.

However, with the 33-year-old's agent having claimed that the deal would "make no sense," it is still unclear as to who is likely to be brought in.

However, Paolillo has stepped in to offer some clarity on the current situation as the Nerazzurri scramble to find a replacement for Leonardo, who left for Paris Saint-Germain.

"For the moment we cannot say as there is no significant developments, but there's no need to wait much longer we you will know him [the new coach] next week," he told the press, as reported by Tuttomercatoweb.com.

"As well as the coach situation, we are also looking to sign a talented youngster."

Italian coaches Delio Rossi, Gian Piero Gasperini and former Chelsea hero Gianfranco Zola have also all been linked with the role at San Siro
