Spain Coach Vicente Del Bosque Defends Rafael Benitez
Benitez could have done better at Inter had things gone his way, claims Del Bosque...
By Subhankar Mondal
Spain coach Vicente Del Bosque has said that Rafael Benitez's failed stint at Inter was not entirely his fault.
Benitez was sacked by the Italian and European champions after they won the Club World Cup in December in the wake of his ultimatum in which he demanded January reinforcements.
Del Bosque, though, believes that the former Valencia and Liverpool manager could have succeeded in Italy.
“Benitez is a great trainer. His career speaks for itself," he told La Gazzetta dello Sport.
“His only fault is that of not having had reinforcements, but rather only injuries and the injuries are certainly not his fault.”
