Benitez led the Liverpool team from 2004 to 2010, and with them he won the Champions League in 2005. He is playing in the 2015/2016 season. 25 games, he was the coach of Real Madrid.
The Spanish football coach stated that Liverpool is a slight favorite in the Champions League final against Real Madrid.
“I love both clubs, and the one who plays better will win. That’s good for football. If we are going to be based on numbers, then Liverpool is a slight favorite. But Real is in the finals of Real… Madrid had a longer vacation, and in these circumstances that is an advantage,” said Benitez to the media.
Benitez claims that in 2015, he formed the Real team, which has been at the top of European football in the last few years.
“We brought Casemiro, who was on loan to Porto. He improved in the game with the ball, which gave freedom to Luka Modrić and Toni Kroos. Then we brought Lukas Vasquez and Mateo Kovačić “, he pointed out. The Spanish coach also stated that he was not sure whether he would take over Liverpool again.
“Klopp is doing a great job.” Everyone is already saying that Steven Gerrard will succeed Klopp. Steven is a symbol of the club. It is not easy to say whether I will return. We will see what the future brings, “, concluded Benitez.
Let us remember that the Champions League final will be tonight at 9 p.m. between Liverpool and Real Madrid.
