Rafael Benitez would consider becoming the new coach of Napoli, according to his agent.

Rafael Benitez's agent Manuel Garcia Quillon has revealed that a move to Napoli could be on the cards for the current Chelsea interim manager.

The Spaniard is due to leave Stamford Bridge at the end of the season, and while he has stated that staying in England would be preferable, a move abroad has not been ruled out.

"We have not had any contact with Napoli, but we are willing to listen to a proposal," Quillon told Tuttomercatoweb. "Napoli are an important team which have done great things in recent years.

"We would be willing to listen to them, but we have to evaluate many other things too. However, we would not close the door on Napoli."

Benitez could end his short spell at Chelsea with a trophy as the team prepare to take on Benfica in the Europa League final tomorrow.
