Rafa to stay at Liverpool for now as Juventus replace boss

Juventus have sacked Ciro Ferrara and appointed Alberto Zaccheroni as coach until the end of the season, ending speculation linking Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez with the post, at least in the short term.

Ferrara’s future had long been the source of speculation and uncertainty after the Bianconeri were knocked out of the Champions League and suffered a drop in form that has all but ruled them out of the race for the Serie A title.
