Agent: 'Rafael Benitez open to Napoli move'

Outgoing Chelsea interim manager Rafael Benitez is open to becoming the new coach of Italian club Napoli, the Spaniard's agent has reiterated.

The Serie A club are looking for a new coach following Walter Mazzarri's announcement that he will leave the team this summer.

"Benitez's future is not decided yet, so anything is possible," Garcia Manuel Quillon told Napoli Network. "This year Chelsea was a very important test for him, to take a team that was not in good shape and bring them to win the Europa League.

"Napoli is a great club that has improved a lot, so we won't rule out or confirm anything. I cannot say any more on the issue.

"At the moment no directors have contacted us and I don't know whether or not [president Aurelio] De Laurentiis will visit me over the next few days. I repeat, Benitez's future is uncertain. We'll see what happens."

Benitez led Chelsea to Europa League success and a third-placed finish in the Premier League this season.
