The former Chelsea boss is keen to rebuild his side with focus on the future.
“Chelsea has basically the same team as I left two years ago,” said Mourinho.
“That was my team. Because the team was not made just for the present but for the future and at Inter I want that.
“Inter have great players that were amazing in their best ages, but this team has too many players who are above 33 and 34 years old. That’s not what I want.
“I want to develop young players and create an Inter with ambitions for the future.”
