I would guess that it is something new as its not advertised on their website schedule but they went to the trouble of advertising it on the tv.

It's new, the reporter spent today interviewing him and at his hockey arena.

 

Hicks will talk to Rafa in a fortnight when he's next over and the takeover is complete. Rafa could well have bought a Learn Yerself Spanish phrasebook by then.

They played a snippet this morning.

 

Basically saying the meeting is scheduled for the day after the Arsenal match; we won't be spending like Chelsea and Rafa is definitely the man they want to take us forward. Groundbreaking stuff.

Liverpool co-owner Tom Hicks says manager Rafa Benitez is "absolutely" the man they want to manage the club.

Newspaper reports have suggested Real Madrid want Benitez to succeed Fabio Capello as their boss this summer.

 

But Hicks told Five Live Sport: "We're going to get together with Rafa the morning after the Arsenal match (on 31 March). It's now time to do that."

 

Benitez added: "I am completely committed to Liverpool Football Club and I'm going nowhere."

 

 

Hicks continued: "I'll have my whole family over and [co-owner] George [Gillett] is going to have his family there.

 

"We're all going to celebrate our first match together as the official owners. We've set aside half a day the next day to visit with Rafa."

 

The American duo are set to formally take control of the Anfield club next week, when the tendering process closes.

 

Hicks says this is the reason why he and Gillett are yet to have detailed talks with Benitez.

 

"I've exchanged a number of emails with Rafa and know George talked to him personally last week," he said.

 

"We've explained to Rafa, which he knows and I think is very comfortable with, that we don't own the team yet.

 

"We will officially own the team some time next week when the tender closes.

 

"It would be very inappropriate for us to start and have those kind of important meetings prior to being the owners."
