GossipGhana can confirm that Rafael Benitez
has been appointed interim first-team manager of Chelsea Football Club
until the end of the season.
The owner and the Board believe that in Benitez they have a manager with significant experienc
e at the highest level of football, who can come in and immediately help deliver our objectives.
The 52-year-old Spaniard is due to meet the players at the training ground in Cobham tomorrow.
The two-time UEFA Manager of the Year comes with outstanding pedigree.
He began his managerial career in his homeland, most notably at Valencia
where he built a reputation as one of Europe’s top coaches by winning
the Spanish League twice and the UEFA Cup. He then spent six years at
Liverpool and led them to their fifth European Cup and an FA Cup.
