Rafael Benitez has targeted a future spell as Spain manager despite being "very happy" at Liverpool.
The Reds supremo has endured a troubled season on Merseyside. Rumours have constantly linked him with an exit to Real Madrid, Inter Milan and Juventus after he could only guide the side to seventh place in the Premier League.
Speaking to AS, the Madrid native refused to draw the curtain on his Anfield reign, though he professed his desire to coach La Roja one day.
Benitez said: "Right now I have four years left in my contract with Liverpool and I am very happy there.
"But, of course, in a few years, once [Spain coach Vicente] Del Bosque ends his work, I would like to be Spain coach.
"All of the Spanish coaches would like in the future to become national team manager."
