Monesta eri lähteestä nyt varmistunut, että Benitez jatkaa. Ashleyn kanssa keskusteltuaan. Tärkeimpänä noukittavaksi ehkäpä tämä:
"Speaking after the meeting, Mike Ashley said: "I've confirmed to Rafa and Lee that they can have every last penny that the club generates through promotion, player sales and other means in order to build for next season.""
Noni. Ihan hyvältä vaikuttaa. Niin tosin monesti aikaisemminkin...
Lisätään vielä lisätietoa ja Rafan kommentit:
"Sky Sports News HQ understands Benitez has been promised in excess of £70m to spend on new players with Ashley happy for him to have access to all funds generated from promotion, once the cost of running the club is deducted"
Ja Rafan kommentit:
""I'm pleased with how the meeting went and the positive approach we are all taking together to build on what we have started this season," Benitez confirmed.
"There will be challenges ahead of course, the summer will not be easy, but the hard work has been going on for some time and we can now continue positively with the development of the squad ahead of the start of the new season. I wish fans an enjoyable summer!"
