Many have speculated that the imminent departure of current chief executive Rick Parry is a sign that Rafael Benitez has decisively won a behind the scenes power-struggle at Liverpool.
However, the former Valencia manager's future with the Merseyside outfit remains far from certain.
“I will sit down with the owners and we will have a meeting – maybe in a few days, maybe in a few weeks," Benitez was quoted as saying by Setanta Sports.
“I will not talk too much about this.”
Instead, the notorious football obsessive preferred to draw attention to the next challenge at hand.
“My concern now is the game against Sunderland,” he added. “We have to prepare this game properly.
“We must not forget that our league performance is better than last season.
"Still, we have to improve. Yes, we have had key players injured and maybe that could have cost us four or five points.
"In this title race, that would be a massive difference. We are in a good position but we could be in a much better position.
"We are now rated in the UEFA rankings as the best team in Europe over the last five years – that underlines how we have done in those seasons – but we must go forward for the rest of the season, and in the future.”
