Benitez:"Napoli has been an important part of my life, I like the way Sarri plays"

After getting Newcastle promoted to the Premier League, Rafa Benitez is back in the headlines, the former Liverpool and Real Madrid manager spoke to Corriere dello Sport about his time at Napoli:"We had a good time, we set the foundation for a change that is still ongoing. The squad started to have an international flavor, that is what was needed. We did what we could, it's not a defect to have less financial means than other clubs. But De Laurentiis did well in bringing the team amongst the top ones. If there's still something from team I built, and I think there is, I'm proud. Napoli is an important part of my life, because it allowed me to know places and individuals that I had never confronted before. I like Sarri's Napoli, it plays attractive football, score a lot and entertains. I hope they win, that's next hurdle"
