Napoli boss Benitez lauds Swansea counterpart Monk

Napoli boss Rafa Benitez says Swansea head coach Garry Monk has a promising managerial career ahead of him, reports BBC Sport. Recently appointed Monk led the Swans to a goalless draw against Benitez's Serie A side in the Europa League on Thursday, impressing the Spaniard.

"From what I have seen, it seems like he has a good future as manager," said Benitez.

"It was a great game and his side did well. If they carry on with similar things, it will give them good confidence."
