Report: West Ham United approach Rafael Benitez about manager's job

West Ham United reportedly make contact with Rafael Benitez's representatives about the Spaniard potentially replacing manager Sam Allardyce.

West Ham United have reportedly made contact with Rafael Benitez's camp about a possible return to the Premier League.

Widespread reports have suggested that the Hammers and current manager Sam Allardyce will part ways this summer.

Numerous coaches have been linked to the position, including Real Sociedad boss David Moyes and Marseille manager Marcelo Bielsa.

However, according to Goal.com, the West Ham hierarchy have approached Benitez's representatives, who are believed to have told the English club not to consider another manager until the Spaniard's future at current club Napoli is resolved.

Benitez, who spent six years in charge of Liverpool, is reportedly keen to return to the Premier League after leaving Chelsea in 2013 following an interim spell.
