Soccer:Former Liverpool and Inter Milan manager Rafael Benitez has been lined up as a replacement for Paris St Germain coach Antoine Kombouare, according to Al-Jazeera.

The Qatari news channel claimed the Ligue 1 side have sacked Kombouare and have approached Benitez, who is available after being dismissed from Serie A club Inter last December.

Benitez enjoyed success with Liverpool between 2004 and 2010, winning a Champions League in 2005 and an FA Cup in 2006.

PSG are currently second in the French top flight after they ended their three-game winless run with a 3-2 win over Auxerre yesterday.
