Former Newcastle United boss Rafa Benitez has hinted at a possible return to Italy in the latest interview addressing his future. The popular ex-Toon manager is currently out of work after being sacked by Everton in January.
Benitez remains a popular figure on Tyneside following his three-year spell in charge at St James' Park. The former Liverpool and Real Madrid boss remained with the Magpies following relegation in 2016, guiding the club back to the Premier League at the first attempt before securing successive mid-table finishes.
Benitez opted against agreeing a new deal at Newcastle in the summer of 2019 following a fractious relationship with the former owner Mike Ashley. The 61-year-old has since endured disappointing stints with Chinese outfit Dalian Pro, and most recently a turbulent seven-month tenure at Goodison Park.
