"Real" leaders ordered R. Benitez to lose weight

The Spanish publication AS announced that the new coach of Real Madrid, Rafael Benitez, will have to visit the sports club more often and pay closer attention to his diet.

According to the press, the 55-year-old specialist's weight has concerned the leaders of the royal club.

One of the directors of Real called Benitez and urged him to follow a diet.

As journalist Javier Matallanas wrote, the reason is simple.

The coach, who is overweight, has often found himself in the sights of opposing fans in the past and has received corresponding chants, especially in England. Therefore, now they want to avoid similar incidents.
