Mourinho has another season remaining on his contract at the Stadio Olimpico and it would be a shock if he left.
The former Chelsea, Manchester United and Tottenham boss is happy at the Serie A side despite the offer, claim LaRoma24.
The Italian side are in the fight to qualify for next season’s Champions League, currently sitting fourth in Serie A and they also remain in the Europa League.
However, money is supposedly tight after a Financial Fair Play breach in 2020 and the club may have to offload players, which could make Mourinho unsettled.
West Ham are on the lookout for a new manager with pressure on Moyes ramping up after a 4-0 loss away at Brighton.
Fans have become disgruntled at a perceived negative style and a lack of results with a small section of supporters even chanted for the Scot’s sacking at the weekend.
Despite a summer outlay of over £100million, the side languish in 16th just a point above the relegation zone.
The Irons reportedly plan to stick with Moyes but could want a new manager in charge next season.

The club have been linked with the likes of Rafa Benitez, Nuno Espirito Santo and former player Michael Carrick.
Rumours suggest more ambitious moves for Mauricio Pochettino or Mourinho could be made.
West Ham face Cypriot side AEK Larnaca in the Conference League and play Aston Villa in the Premier League before the international break.
