Once announced on the departure of Al-Ittihad, Karim Benzema should finish the season well with the Saudi club. His coach seems to be counting on him.
After being sidelined for several weeks by Al-Ittihad, Karim Benzema returned to training on Monday. The French striker arrived 17 days late than the date initially planned.
The 2022 Ballon d’or has been in Mauritius for several days. The player’s entourage had justified the extension of his vacation by Cyclone Belal, the second tropical system of the 2023-2024 season in the southwest Indian Ocean.
After Al-Ittihad’s 4-0 victory against Al-Faisaly, Marcelo Gallardo spoke about the situation of his center forward. “His return depends on him and his physical condition”, said the Argentinian technician. On his return from vacation, the former Lyonnais trained alone in the club’s facilities.
Criticized for his performances since his arrival in Saudi Arabia, Karim Benzema had been the subject of several rumors of departure during the winter transfer window. Information denied by the person himself in a message sent to The Team. “This is completely false!” The media no longer know what to invent. The bigger the better,” lamented the man who is the second top scorer in the history of Real Madrid.
