Rafa Benitez set to sign historic deal to become Everton's new manager this weekÂ
Rafa Benitez is set to sign a historic deal by signing a deal that will make him the first man in modern history to manage at both Liverpool and Everton.
Â
The Spaniard is expected to sign his new contract in the next few days, with the club provisionally planning to confirm his arrival on Tuesday.
Â
The 61-year-old will become the Toffees' fifth permanent manager after Carlo Ancelotti, who left Goodison Park to return to Real Madrid earlier this month.
Â
Benitez's arrival will come 11 years after he left Anfield, where he spent six years as Liverpool manager, winning the Champions League and FA Cup.
Â
The former Newcastle and Real Madrid manager was also Chelsea's interim coach for the majority of the 2012/13 season, winning the Europa League, before coaching Newcastle United for more than three years before leaving at the end of 2018/19 campaign.
Â
According to Mail Online, Everton owner Farhad Moshiri is convinced that Benitez, who is considered among the most-iconic former Liverpool managers, is the best coach to take Everton into the Champions League despite backlash from Evertonians over his imminent appointment.
