Inter Coach Rafael Benitez Refutes Claims He Has Broken Promise Not To Sign Liverpool Players
Technical director and chairman responsible for Italian giants' transfers
By Matt Monaghan
The duo are both on the Spaniard's shopping list, with a £20 million bid being slapped in for the Argentina skipper and Kuyt's agent claiming a deal is close. Benitez was understood to have signed an agreement to not pilfer his former side when he left Anfield this summer.
Speaking at a press conference, he stated technical director Marco Branca and president Massimo Moratti dictate Inter's transfer policy: "I will not talk about this because I am the coach.
"The coach cannot sign any players. It has to be the technical director and the chairman. The club can do it. I am the coach, not the manager."
