Benitez turns Newcastle down.


Newcastle United say manager Rafael Benitez will leave the club when his contract expires on 30 June.

The Magpies finished 13th in the Premier League last season as Spaniard Benitez, 59, secured the club's top-flight status.

"We have worked hard to extend Rafa's contract over a significant period of time," said a Newcastle statement.

"However, it has not been - and will not be - possible to reach an agreement with Rafa and his representatives."

Im only pulling your leg, I don't care whats a sticky :lol:

Rafa did very well for them and although they didn't spent big money they had a decent enough squad. Maybe a change was what was needed.

Talk of Monk going there.
Nailed on to go down now , the atmosphere will be hostile and I can’t see Ashley setting foot in St James park ever again.

Rafa deserves better than Newcastle, he’s done an amazing job there and won’t be unemployed for long
