Newcastle, West Ham and QPR on alert as Napoli chief hints at summer departure
Napoli manager Rafa Benitez has admitted he doesn’t know where he will be manager next season.
The former Liverpool and Chelsea manager was a success in England but his contract in Serie A expires in the summer and so a return could be on.
Newcastle, West Ham and QPR could all be looking for new managers at the end of the season and Benitez would fit the bill for all three.
The Spaniard admits he doesn’t know when he will leave Napoli but doesn’t want his future to affect the players.
“I do not know when my farewell will arrive,” Benitez said in a press conference.
“It could be between three to five years, or even just one. Regardless, I will certainly always give 100 per cent for this team until the last day.
“Everyone knows that my contract expires in June, shortly we’ll talk but now it is more important to talk about the team, my personal issues do not count.”
West Ham boss Sam Allardyce is out of contract this summer too and fan unrest could prompt David Gold and David Sullivan into action.
QPR and Newcastle have both given their first team coaches until the end of the season after replacing long term managers and could both be in the market too.
A big name with a big reputation may cost a bit, but Benitez has a proven record that suits England.

Go for it Ron. There's a good CV thread on here somewhere, if you want a few tips. As long as you are truly NOT Allardyce, and I don't think you are, then you will do......so it goes.

not according to this (mind you it is from the sun)
http://hereisthecity.com/en-gb/2015/05/17/report-west-ham-snub-chance-to-appoint-unai-emery-as-allardyces/
According to The Sun, West Ham United have rejected the chance to appoint Unai Emery as their new manager at the end of the season.
The Hammers have only mustered three Premier League wins in 2015, meaning out-of-contract manager Sam Allardyce is edging ever closer to the Upton Park exit door.
Now down in 11th place having been challenging for Europe at Christmas, West Ham will be looking to make an ambitious appointment to take them to the next level.
Despite that, The Sun believe that West Ham have turned down an approach from the agents of Sevilla boss Unai Emery, who is allegedly keen to try his hand in the Premier League.
Emery, 43, made his name as manager of Valencia, winning 49% of his games in charge before a six-month stint as Spartak Moscow manager.
Back in Spain with Sevilla since January 2013, Emery won the Europa League trophy last season and now has Sevilla in the final of the same competition again this season - a record hard to ignore.
With his side also in fifth place in the La Liga table, Emery has done a superb job in charge of the Andalusian side - but according to The Sun, West Ham aren't interested.
They report that the Hammers were approached by Emery's representatives as they try to broker a move to England, but his lack of Premier League experience means that West Ham will look in a different direction this summer.

If the only criteria for a potential candidate is to NOT be Sam Allardyce, I think I might throw my hat into the ring.

By the way, I always assumed Dick Emery was a shirt lifter but I notice he had five wives. Must have got that one wrong. Ooh I am awful, but I like myself.

Well, this Emery has no PL experience, can only say "Que?" in english, but he is not Sam Allardyce, so he should do just fine.

Yes it would, better than a mile of Benitez or Bilic.
As long as Real dont get there hands on him of course, which is what the article starts of being about.
Think they will want a bigger name though, hes one for the future for them and a stint in the PL may just do that.

Coffee might be a while, he has to spell check and punctuation and grammar check that lot first.
