(Reuters) - Former Liverpool and Newcastle United manager Rafa Benitez is eyeing a return to the Premier League and said he would make a decision on his future based on the kind of project presented to him by the clubs in England's top-flight. He twice reached the final of the Champions League and won Europe's elite club competition in unforgettable style in 2005. Reports in the British media have linked the former Real Madrid boss with the Celtic hotseat, but Benitez said his focus was on the Premier League. "The priority is England because I like the Premier League and my family is here," Benitez told British media. Newcastle have struggled under Benitez's replacement, Steve Bruce, with the club 17th in the Premier League and in contention to be relegated.
