Newcastle United manager Rafael Benitez is reportedly wanted by Dalian Yifang.
It has been reported that the Chinese Super League are interested in appointing Benitez as their new manager and are willing to pay him £12 million per year as salary.
The former Liverpool and Chelsea manager is out of contract at Newcastle this summer, and no new deal is in place.
Concern for Newcastle United
Benitez has done a really great job at Newcastle, and the St. James’ Park faithful have always believed that the Spaniard will stay beyond the summer, and that an agreement between him and the club will be reached.
However, this latest report on Sky Sports suggests that may not be the case, as the Spaniard is reportedly open to moving to China.
It will be a concern for Newcastle, as the Magpies will struggle to attract as good a manager as Benitez, who has worked miracles in keeping the club in the Premier League for the past two season.
