“I was in contact with him, he had the Olympic Games in the back of his head, we needed to sort out his situation and he is fine,”
Benitez told the
club's official website.
“He is happy because he can go there… and he knows he has to give us something back because we were supporting him.
“That could be something we can consider not great in the beginning but will be a massive boost for us in the rest of the season because he will try to deliver.”
