The former Real Madrid title winning coach has been linked with a return should Xabi Alonso be removed this week.
After Sunday's home defeat to Celta Vigo, it's been suggested Xabi could be axed if Real suffer a heavy Champions League defeat to Manchester City tonight.
Asked about rumours that he could be hired as a caretaker by Real president Florentino Perez, Mourinho was short with the inquirer.
"There's nothing to say, you brought up the topic," said Mourinho.
"Don't ask me hypothetical questions. Would it be easy to say no to Benfica?"
Benifca meet Napoli tonight in their Champions League tie and Mourinho added: "I don't watch Serie A matches. I focus on the league I work in, and then I have little time to follow anything else."
