Shearer: I'm surprised Benitez is staying

5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

Newcastle United’s record goalscorer and former captain Alan Shearer admits he is “delighted” but a “little surprised” by Rafa Benitez's decision to stay on as manager of the Magpies. Shearer said: "It's a tough league, The Championship, and hopefully he can get Newcastle back into the Premier League within one season." The 56-year-old Spaniard was appointed Newcastle manager in March, following the sacking of Steve McClaren. This clip was first broadcast on 5 live Sport, Wednesday 25th May 2016.
