Rafael Benitez wants Premier League return

Benitez wants Premier League return

Former Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez has admitted that he is keen to return to the Premier League.

The Spaniard, currently without a club, left Anfield by mutual consent in 2010 before spending a season at Inter Milan.

He has revealed, however, that he is confident he can be a success in England once more.

"I'm a professional and I'm looking for a new job. At this time Kenny [Dalglish] is the manager and I have a lot of respect for him. No rush. If Kenny retires in 10 years and I'm available, I would be pleased," Benitez told Soccerex.

"I want to manage in the Premier League because I know, with my team, we can win trophies."

Benitez won the Champions League with Liverpool in 2005.
