Italian giants want Rafa

Juventus are ready to take advantage over the uncertainty surrounding Rafael Benitez's future at Liverpool. The Italian giants are, like Liverpool, experiencing a nightmare season and are on the verge of sacking incumbent manager Ciro Ferrara. According to reports, they believe Benitez is the man to turn things around for them. And Benitez’s agent Manuel Garcia Quilon only fuelled the speculation on Monday, claiming: "Benitez to Juventus? In football you never know. I don't know what will happen in four to five months. In football everything changes quickly." Quilon insisted that Benitez had a four-year contact at Anfield and wanted to honour it but that he was leaving his options open. "He is a very important figure to the Liverpool fans - the idols of the fans are Gerrard, Torres, and Benitez. But you never know what will happen."
