Benitez not thinking too hard about Chelsea future

Rafael Benitez says it would be careless of him to think too much about his future as Chelsea manager.

The Spaniard is on an interim basis at Stamford Bridge after taking over from the sacked Roberto Di Matteo earlier this season and he insists that he is not pondering his life as Blues boss further than the three months remaining in the current campaign.

"We have to concentrate on the future and the future is tomorrow," said Benitez ahead of the Europa League Round of 32 first leg with Sparta Prague.

"I cannot talk about what will happen in three months' time. We have to concentrate on this competition - it's quite difficult - and tomorrow will be a tough game, so that is my priority."
