Liverpool-Napoli: Benitez predicts two decisive players

Liverpool-Napoli: Benitez predicts two decisive players

Newcastle boss Rafa Benitez knows Napoli and Liverpool very well. During his coaching career he’s been winning with both clubs and tomorrow he’ll be watching the decisive Champions League clash between the Reds and the Azzurri with a lot of interest.

“I am proud to have win trophies with both clubs”, Benitez told Il Corriere dello Sport.

“I really admire Ancelotti and I think he has the same feeling for me. Every time we meet for technical reunions there is never a lot of time but it’s clear that we admire each other”.

“When I was at Napoli Juventus were already very strong. I knew Napoli had a long-term project and they wanted to improve. I signed a two-year deal and we began an important path. We signed the likes of Koulibaly, Mertens, Albiol, and Callejon. Napoli became an International club”.

“Many players can be decisive in Liverpool-Napoli: the Reds have Mané, Firmino, and Sturridge. Napoli can rely on Callejon, Mertens, Albiol, and Koulibaly. If I had to choose two I’d pick Salah and Insigne”.
