Rafael Benitez wants to win every single match
It has already been revealed and confirmed that Rafael Benitez was the man that was selected to replace Carlo Ancelotti in the managerial position of Real Madrid.
Rafael Benitez is optimistic about his future as the coach of the Spanish club. The new coach of Real Madrid said that his team is capable of lifting major pieces of silverware and winning every single match.
The 55 year old Spanish manager spoke during his presentation as the new coach of Real Madrid and said: “The team must be competitive, capable of reaching the end of the season with chance to win trophies. The Champions League, La Liga and Copa del Rey are our objectives, as Madrid must win each game. Can we win it, sometimes yes, sometimes no, as this is football. But the idea is to try and win from the first game,that is what I inherited here, regardless of the competition.”
Every time he was asked about the changes that he is planning to do with the squad and on who will be signed, Benitez evaded those questions as Benitez continued talking about how important and big it is for him to become the new coach of Real Madrid.
The last major piece of silverware that Rafael Benitez lifted was the Champions League and this occurred back in the 2004-05 season when he was in charge of Liverpool.
After Benitez finished his managerial stay in Liverpool, he has gone to: Inter Milan, Chelsea and Napolo where he has managed to win a number of different titles such as: FIFA Club World Cup, UEFA Europa League and Super coppa Italiana just to name a few.
Those trophies are impressive in their own way but Florentino Perez did not turn Rafael Benitez into the coach of Real Madrid to win those titles, the president of Real Madrid wants to see Benitez winning bigger trophies such as: Champions League.
Winning the Champions League is something that Benitez has not done in over 10 years but he will have to do it soon if he wants to avoid suffering the same fate as Carlo Ancelotti and the other managers who have been sacked.
