Rafa Benitez was announced as Napoli's new coach tonight after concluding his interim spell at Chelsea.

Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis made the announcement on his personal Twitter account, calling Benitez "a man of great international experience. A leader."

Benitez has reportedly signed a two-year deal worth £3 million per season. The Spaniard led Chelsea to the Europa League title earlier this month, having previously coached Internazionale in Serie A.
