PSG Coach Laurent Blanc is widely expected to leave Parc des Princes at the end of the season, and in an interview with France Football, the Spaniard has hinted he would be open to replacing him.
“Today I’m in Naples and I’m concentrated on Napoli,” Benitez began.
“But in the future I can’t predict what will happen. In the past I’ve coached in Spain, England and Italy.
"I think Ligue 1 is full of good players, who are very fast and well coached in a technical sense.
"However, the mastery of tactics is less developed than in Serie A, and the tempo is slower than the Premier League.
“I’d have no problem embracing a new adventure in a new league. There’d have to be the right offer, at the right time, with the right team.”
With the former Liverpool manager unlikely to take a job outside of Europe’s top five leagues, a ‘new league’ would likely mean Ligue 1 or the Bundesliga.
With Le Figaro reporting today that Laurent Blanc is likely to leave after the season is over, it seems that the job could be available in the French capital, and the newspaper names Benitez as one of the potential successors.
