Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has confirmed under-fire manager Rafa Benitez has the full support and confidence of the club.
Real were thrashed 4-0 at home by Barcelona in Saturday’s El Clasico, to leave Benitez’s side six points behind leaders Barca.

They then slipped to third place in the La Liga table on Sunday when city rivals Atletico won 1-0 at Real Betis.
Perez faced the media on Monday evening to clarify the position surrounding his manager, after earlier holding a board meeting, and he said:
“We analysed the sporting situation and I want to inform you that our coach Rafa Benitez has our full support and our full confidence.
“He was picked for his professionalism, his achievements, his experience and his ability. Rafa has just started his job here, let him keep working and he will achieve his objective.
“He has a good relationship with the players and he has a good relationship with the board and with me.
“But I only talk about this moment. I cannot say what will happen in the future. No-one can say what will happen in six months.”
Do you support Madrid decision to keep Benitez?
