Brazil have been without a permanent head coach since the departure of Tite after the 2022 FIFA World Cup, with Fernando Diniz taking charge of the side in recent months.
Mourinho, however, is not aware of any links with the five-time World Cup winners.
"I don't know if it's true that Brazil wants me," Mourinho said, as per ESPN.
"They haven't spoken to me. I asked my agent not to tell me anything about any contacts."
"I have no reason to think that the [Roma owners] Friedkin family is not honest, I trust the ownership 100%.
"It doesn't mean I'll stay here 100% but it means they're not looking for someone else behind my back."
