Benitez weighing up £7m raid on former club Chelsea for defender Azpilicueta Rafa Benitez is ready to return to Stamford Bridge for Chelsea defender Cesar Azpilicueta. The Napoli boss is desperate for a right-back after injuries to Giandomenico Mesto and Juan Zuniga have threatened to undermine the Italian side's strong start to the season. Azpilicueta figured regularly under Benitez at Chelsea but has been on the periphery this season with Jose Mourinho preferring to play Branislav Ivanovic at right-back. Spain international Azpilicueta has vowed to fight for his place but the chance to play regularly again under Benitez will no doubt appeal. Chelsea would be reluctant to sell mid-season but may be persuaded if offers come close to the £7million they paid Marseille for the 24-year-old in August 2012. Benitez is also a big admirer of Liverpool and England defender Glen Johnson but that deal would prove more expensive.
