Rafa Benitez has again reiterated his plans to stay at Anfield and insisted that he has no plans what so ever to take over from current Real Madrid boss Wanderley Luxemburgo in the summer. There have been constant rumours that Madrid were trying to lure Benitez back to Spain but the Liverpool boss stated:

"I am not thinking about my future."

"Someone says to me about a long contract. I am very happy now. I don't have any problems.

"I want to win trophies this season and the next seasons with Liverpool.

"I was happy with Extramadura where we were promoted and Tenerife, where we were promoted.

"At Valladolid I was sacked and I was happy there also.

"Valencia was fantastic the last three years and here it is the same. I enjoy my job.

"I don't want to think of a new contract. I don't want to put anyone under pressure. I don't need to think about it.

"Jose Mourinho has 10 more years at Chelsea. That's fine. Good for him.

"If I have five or 10 years it's the same."
