Rafa Benitez says former Wolves boss Julen Lopetegui would be a positive appointment for AC Milan.
Lopetegui is in contact with Milan about replacing Stefano Pioli next season.
Benitez told La Gazzetta dello Sport: "I don't know the dynamics that deeply, I can say that Julen is an excellent coach.
"And that taking over from Pioli, who won, will be complicated."
On Italy's Euros, Benitez added: "I believe it is heading towards a new golden era, the potential is there and it's growing. At the European Championships, I put Italy among the favourites together with England, Germany, Portugal and Spain."
