It is rumoured that Benitez is second on the wish list for the Spanish giants, who have a history of short term managerial appointments. But the Reds boss said the rumours were simply fictitious.
"Real Madrid is just another rumour. At the moment I don't have any other ideas apart from the Blackburn Rovers game. I am proud to be the Liverpool manager and now I want to beat Blackburn. I have five years on my contract so why shouldn't I be here for a long time?" Benitez said.
