Inter Milan president Massimo Moratti has admitted that he is resigned to manager Jose Mourinho departing the club in the close season.
Mourinho is widely expected to join La Liga giants Real Madrid after guiding Inter to a second successive Serie A title.
The former Chelsea boss can also complete a treble on Saturday by beating Bayern Munich in the Champions League final, having already won the Coppa Italia, Italy's domestic cup competition.
Mourinho has stated on the record his desire to manage Real, and even though the Portuguese tactician refused to say at what point in the future, he is unequivocal about his dislike for the Italian game.
And Moratti says the move across the continent is likely to be sooner rather than later as reports emerged suggesting Mourinho is preparing for his children to move schools - indicating a move is inevitable.
"It is hard to predict what such a 'volcanic' character will do," Moratti told Italian radio station Anch'io. "We don't know what he will do, really.
"It is either something which will really surprise us, or something which we unfortunately expect - a future not at Inter, but abroad."
