Chelsea Football Clb can
confirm Rafael Benitez has been appointed interim first-team manager until the
end of the season.
The owner and
the Board believe that in Benitez we have a manager with significant experience
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.
