The Spaniard only had just over six months in charge of Real Madrid between 2015 and 2016. He came in to replace Carlo Ancelotti.
The 62-year-old has since had spells at Newcastle United and Everton in the Premier League but he is now out of work. “When we arrived in Madrid, [Carlo] Ancelotti had just left, he had a very good relationship with the players, and it seemed that we arrived with a whip,” Benitez told Spanish radio station Cadena Ser .
“Cristiano, knowing what he was like, you had to guide him. The problem is when you have to guide seven, some of them don’t play, they’re not happy. And they go to the media to leak it.”and that he had a poor relationship with the ex-Man Utd forward.“It’s another lie. He [Bale] plays with Wales, he catches me next door when I’m in England, it’s common sense. It’s another idiocy that they said at the time.
