The former Liverpool and Real Madrid boss is currently in charge of Dalian Yifang in China after leaving Newcastle in the summer.<\/p>\n
Everton sacked Marco Silva last week while Arsenal are currently looking for a permanent replacement for Unai Emery.<\/p>\n
Speaking to Sky Sports, Benitez said: \u201cI can be very clear \u2013 there is no chance I will come back now because I\u2019m really happy.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m really pleased (Dalian Yifang) trust me. We have a lot of staff working on a big, big project. We want to leave a legacy and it\u2019s a challenge for me. I\u2019m quite happy at the moment.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn the future I would like to come back to the Premier League because I like the league.\u201d<\/p>\n
Benitez has also been linked with West Ham, should the club part ways with current boss Manuel Pellegrini.<\/p>\n
The Spaniard, who revealed he came close to joining the Hammers in 2015 before eventually taking over at Real Madrid, insists he is happy in China.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was in the past, it\u2019s true that I was nearly there (at West Ham),\u201d he added. \u201cThen Real Madrid came, and I needed a couple of days to know exactly what was going on.<\/p>\n
\u201cObviously I couldn\u2019t say no to Real Madrid, but it was a good time and it\u2019s a massive club.<\/p>\n
\u201cEverybody can see both teams (West Ham and Arsenal) have problems, but both are massive clubs and they will do well at the end.\u201d<\/p>\n
