Rafael Benitez dreaming of a comeback to Anfield – Premier League update
Former Liverpool boss, Rafael Benitez, has disclosed his affection for his previous club and is now considering his future prospects in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749. Liverpool sacked Rafa following an underperforming campaign for the Reds in the Champions League, where the Anfield
squad failed to secure a spot.
The club management had appointed the Fulham’s 63-year-old Roy Hodgson who barely lasted half a season and was then replaced with the legendary Kenneth Dalglish. Kenny Dalglish was the last Liverpool boss who led his team to the league title. Rafael also
praised the way Kenny managed the team. He stated that it would be a dream come true to come back to the Anfield. Rafa said, “I am really proud of being the manager of Liverpool Football Club and I would like to come back in the future. You never know [when]
because Kenny is doing a really good job. It's a question of time. You never know in the future. It would be a dream. I would be really pleased to come back in the future.”
Rafael Benitez was previously attached with FC Liverpool and he achieved accolades when Liverpool won the UEFA Champions League, the highest honor in European club football. In the following three seasons, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 also won the FA cup. Having done so, Liverpool
still could not win the English Premier League but finished as second best in the 2008 - 2009 season. The Spaniard did wonders in England by instilling a work ethic, commitment and dedication. He gained a reputation for calm and calculating tactics during
his stay with the English club.
The 60-year-old Spaniard also managed the Nerazzurri, having replaced Jose Mourinho in June 2010. His stay with the Italian club had not been successful right in the beginning. Apart from the controversies, he still managed to enjoy a good reputation in
world football. Following a poor start and tumultuous relationship with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 owner, Massimo Moratti, he was fired from the Italian club.
When questioned about his return to the English Premier League, the Benitez was quite hopeful but he also made it clear that he would not accept any offer from Manchester United or Everton because of the rivalry with his previous club. He told news channels,
“Fans in Liverpool know the teams I would not go [to] but I think these clubs wouldn't offer me a job. I'm a professional but obviously some clubs I would not go to, especially the big rivals of Liverpool. I won't say the names, but it's not difficult!”
Let’s see what the future holds for the veteran coach and his chances in English Football.
