Don’t do it Rafa.
Rafa Benitez is a man we would guess does not do idleness very well.
His teams were usually full of energy and precision, so we’d wager staying at home watching the Spanish version of Countdown would not be to his liking.
The former Liverpool boss has been unemployed since his dismissal from Real Madrid, but rumour has it today (for all you Adele fans), he could be set for a dramatic return to the Premier League.
Newcastle’s time in the Premier League could be running out quickly unless they arrest the slide under Steve McClaren, but the former England manager may not see out the season.
He spent tonnes of cash in January, but according to The Sun, Benitez has been approached to take over as the club’s interim boss to steer them away from the drop.
With just 11 games to go, the club are one off the bottom, and, they could turn to the former Chelsea interim manager for a quick fix.
David Moyes is also understood to be in the frame for the job if McClaren is sacked, as well as ex-Roma boss Rudi Garcia.
