Benitez: Real Madrid will play winning football

New Real Madrid coach Rafa Benitez says they'll play "winning football" under him next season.

Benitez was unveiled as new Real coach yesterday, penning terms to 2018.

"Real Madrid is such a massive club that it always keeps a curious eye on what might be going on in the transfer market. The team have to play at their best if they're going to win and have a clear idea of what they want to achieve. We need to be a competitive team, play good football and aspire to win. When you're in charge of a team with this much quality you have to attack, score goals and play well whenever possible," he said.

"I've been involved with football for years and have experience of different structures. I've come here to be the coach and make myself available for the club. The squad possesses so much quality that we'll have to try and get the best out of these players, who are already excellent."
