FC Porto president Pinto da Costa believes that Chelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas will join Inter Milan if he leaves Stamford Bridge.
The 34-year-old only joined the Blues in the summer from Porto, but the club's recent form has led to speculation that he could be fired by owner Roman Abramovich at the end of the season.
However, Da Costa feels that Villas-Boas would be perfectly suited to life in Serie A with Inter.
"If he were to leave Chelsea, I am sure he will become the next coach at Inter," Da Costa told La Gazzetta dello Sport. "He has the right personality to coach the Nerazzurri.
"In the past, I said the same thing about [Jose] Mourinho. However, in my opinion Villas-Boas made a mistake to leave Porto so soon.
"He thought that this was a unique opportunity, but he would surely get other offers like that."
Inter reportedly tried to appoint Villas-Boas in July 2011, but were unable to meet Porto's asking price.
