MILAN - Porto's Andre Villas Boas will not become the new coach of Inter Milan partly because of an expensive release clause in his contract, Inter sporting director Marco Branca said on Sunday.

"The presence in his contract of a very expensive break clause among other things excludes the possibility of him sitting on the Inter bench," Branca told Ansa in quotes carried by Inter's website.
Former Argentina boss Marcelo Bielsa has ruled himself out of the running after initial talks while England's Fabio Capello and Fiorentina's Sinisa Mihajlovic have distanced themselves from the role as the 2010 European champions seek a fourth coach in just over a year.
