Real Madrid coach's wife says Benitez is clearing up Chelsea manager's mess

Rafa Benitez joined Real Madrid this summer to tidy up another mess of Jose Mourinho's making, according to the Spaniard's wife.

The 55-year-old made the move to the Santiago Bernabeu - replacing Carlo Ancelotti - making it the third club he has succeeded Mourinho at having previously taken charge at Inter Milan and Chelsea.
Speaking to La Region, Montserrat Seara believes her husband is making amends for Mourinho's mistakes.

She said: "We tidy up his messes. If you think about it, of course you end up crossing paths. There are only a few world-class clubs out there."

She also confirmed that the former Liverpool and Napoli boss never switches off from football and even showed off his football knowledge to woo her.
