Benitez may return to coaching in the Premier League
According to the "Independent" report, after officially resigned from the Chinese Super League club Dalian Ren as coach last weekend, Benitez is already looking for coaching other teams Opportunity. Although the 60-year-old coach had been rumored with the Celtics before, he actually hopes to return to coaching in the Premier League.
However, the former Newcastle United coach decided not to return to Dalian because of the new crown epidemic, not because of receiving invitations from other clubs. At present, many European clubs have contacted him to ask him whether he can be the head coach, but the Spaniard is still waiting for suitable job opportunities.
Before he resigned from Dalian, Benitez had nearly one year left in his contract with the club. His monthly salary reached 1 million pounds (8.8 million yuan), and Benitez himself never One of the reasons that cover up attracting him to coach the Super Club is the generous compensation. However, this did not obliterate his sense of competition. He hoped that the next club he coached would have a chance to win a trophy.
Although Celtic coach Neil Lennon is in trouble, Benitez is unlikely to go to Scotland to coach, even if he has a chance to win the trophy there. There are also speculations that he will return to St. James’s Park to coach Newcastle, but although coach Bruce is on the verge of dismissal, given Benitez’s previous experience with boss Ashley, we can’t imagine him returning to Ashley again. Newcastle under the control.

Currently, Ashley is initially seeking legal means to confront the Premier League in order to complete the acquisition of Newcastle United by the Saudi consortium led by Amanda Staveli. Currently, this acquisition is still hopeful to be completed. The relationship between Amanda and Benitez can be traced back to 13 years ago when she attempted to acquire Liverpool but finally failed, when Benitez was the coach of Liverpool. And if the Saudi consortium can finally successfully acquire Newcastle, then Benitez will also be included in their coach recruitment candidates.
Although when he was coaching Chelsea, Benitez was not seen by fans because of his previous remarks to the club and his coaching experience in Liverpool.However, the relationship between the Spanish coach and the top blues is still good. Currently, Chelsea coach Frank Lampard is facing tremendous pressure, he needs to improve the team's state as soon as possible, in order to hope to keep his job. Owner Abramović hopes to appoint a more well-known coach, and Tuchel also had a scandal with Chelsea after he left school in Paris. However, the German arrogance is one of the factors that Chelsea worry about. In addition, Allegri and Rogers are also candidates for coaches considered by Chelsea. However, if Lampard fails to retain his position, then Chelsea may appoint a temporary coach between now and this summer to temporarily take over the team. What Benitez wants now is obviously a long-term job.

But if Rogers gets the favor of a bigger club and leaves the Blue Foxes, this is Benitez's ideal home. Before Leicester City appointed Rogers as coach, Benitez was invited by the club to coach, but he refused to leave Newcastle in the middle of the season. Since Leicester City's determination to change coaches was very firm at that time, they turned their goal to Rogers, who could leave the Celtics without any worries.
