Benitez dreams of Liverpool return

Former Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez admits ''it would be a dream'' to manage the club again in the future, having been replaced by Roy Hodgson last summer.

Benitez, who lasted just six months before being sacked by new club Inter Milan, admits Kenny Dalglish is currently doing an impressive job in his role as caretaker boss until the end of the season, after the Reds parted company with Hodgson following a dreadful start to the season.
Despite Dalglish's success, Benitez concedes he would jump at the chance to resume his love affair with the Kop.
''I am really proud of being the manager of Liverpool Football Club and I would like to come back in the future,'' Benitez told Sky Sports News. ''You never know (when) because Kenny is doing a really good job. It's a question of time. You never know in the future.
''It would be a dream. I would be really pleased to come back in the future.''
Benitez revealed he would consider other offers in England but would never contemplate managing Liverpool's rivals Everton and Manchester United.
''Fans in Liverpool know the teams I would not go (to) but I think these clubs wouldn't offer me a job,'' he said. ''I'm a professional but obviously some clubs I would not go to, especially the big rivals of Liverpool. I won't say the names, but it's not difficult!''
