DBasia.news – Former Liverpool coach Rafa Benitez says he still feels comfortable with Chinese club Dalian Yifang and there are no plans to return to the Premier League even though rumors of his move are often heard. The news that says that he will move to Everton or Arsenal soon made him speak up.
Yes, Benitez is one of the names that is rumored to be the new manager of Everton or Arsenal soon. The two clubs did not get a brand-new figure after firing their respective managers.
“One day I certainly want to return to the Premier League. But, I don’t want to go back anytime soon because I feel very happy in China right now,” Rafa Benitez told Sky Sports.
Since leaving from Newcastle United last summer, Benitez has been preoccupied with his activities in training Dalian Yifang. In the Bamboo Curtain country, he was also assigned to form a strong team from U-6 players to the senior squad.
“People might say that the Chinese League is a league that is far different from the Premier League. They are right. But, I am supported by a large company that is behind the club and wants to make many changes,” said Benitez.
“We have started working with children as young as six years old until the first team. Besides that, I also want to leave a valuable inheritance there. So, I gained quite a lot of knowledge because I had a job with a tough challenge,” said Benitez.
