Felicitations
Congratulations to one of my favorite boys on the birth of his first child :) Bet the boy’s gonna look just as little-boy charming as his daddy!
Benitez will have Xabi Alonso back in his squad against Reading, the midfielder having missed the midweek win against Inter Milan to be at his girlfriend’s bedside when she gave birth to their first son.
Benitez dismissed suggestions of a problem over Alonso’s absence in Milan, saying: “I have told Xabi I have prepared a new contract for his baby son, because Xabi’s father was a good player too, so maybe Xabi’s son will be a good player too so it is important to sign players early!”
