Rafa Benitez hopes to return to football after his sacking by Everton.
Il Corriere dello Sport reports talk of the 61-year-old's time with the Blues was deemed a 'taboo' subject during their interview.
However, Benitez still spoke about how he hopes to return to football management.
“With my staff, we are watching matches of the main four or five European leagues and we do analysis to see, with the latest technologies, big data, the news of the game," said Benitez, who left the Blues with a 31.8% winning record.
“We want to be prepared for the future.
“Now, I need one or two months to recover, but next season I want to start again in a tournament where you can compete.
“Difficulties don't scare me. On the contrary."
