Rafael Benitez through his time at Liverpool has managed players of the calibre of Steven Gerrard, Xabi Alonso, Luis Garcia, Fernando Torres and Javier Masceranho and was known to have an attraction to Spanish talent

Rafael Benitez was the first manager to win Liverpool their Champions League in 2005 after the club had failed to win it. 21 years had passed since Liverpool had last won the Champions League before the tragic Heysel disaster. Rafael Benitez was the manager who inspired Steven Gerrard, Xabi Alonso, Luis Garcia, John Arne Riise and Jamie Carragher to lift the Champions League trophy, who had to mount an impossible comeback against the greatest AC Milan side ever.

“Rafael Benitez wants to manage Liverpool when there is a proper and serious crisis to steady the ship”

Rafael Benitez is currently without a club and has been linked with a move to the Scottish Premiership to manage Celtic. Such an appointment would see master go up against student as Rafael Benitez will be competing against Steven Gerrard. However there are arguments that the ambitions of the owners of Celtic could not match with the ambition of Rafael Benitez.

The Spanish manager feels that he has unfinished business with the club and would like to return to the Anfield dugout sometime in the future. However it has to be said that Jurgen Klopp is contracted to be Liverpool’s manager until 2024 and he could extend his stay beyond that too. This has been the best set of players Klopp has ever managed and they have managed to win trophies which Klopp hasn’t managed to win with Borussia Dortmund. Needless to say, Liverpool is made for Jurgen Klopp and Jurgen Klopp is made for Liverpool.

In a time of crisis after Jurgen Klopp leaves, maybe then a strong and calm head like Rafael Benitez can take over as manager of Liverpool one more time.
