Former Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez has admitted that he would be interested in taking over at Chelsea. The Blues are currently on the look out for a new coach since firing Andre Villas-Boas last week, and Roberto di Matteo is current interim first team manager.
Benitez's record is exceptional with his previous clubs Liverpool and Valencia, but after a poor spell at Inter Milan, the Spaniard has since been without a job.
But the Spanish coach admitted that a move to Chelsea would appeal. Benitez said: "What are they [Chelsea] looking for? Champions of Europe.
"So if they have someone that can guarantee that they will win a lot of games, especially in the Champions League, I think they will be happy.
"I have said before many times that I would like to find a top side that can match my desire to win trophies so people were linking me with Chelsea and there were rumours about meetings.
"I didn't have a proper offer on the table. There is no rush as I have been waiting since I left Inter just analysing football and waiting for the right offer."
