“This is completely false!” The media no longer knows what to invent. The bigger the better”the French striker was also offended, about all these rumors, in comments relayed by The Evening Team. However, according to the Spanish media Sport, he would have considered returning to Real Madrid during this winter transfer window. The coach of the Merengue club, Carlo Ancelotti, was also in favor of such a return. However, the leaders of the “White House” would have opposed it, believing that they had sufficient personnel on the offensive level and not having appreciated the way in which Benzema left last June.

“I feel very happy, happy to join a legendary club. Of course it’s a new challenge for me, a new life and I can’t wait to start training. Why this club? It’s one of the best in Saudi Arabia, it’s a club with fervor, passion and a lot of trophies. Why Saudi Arabia? Because I am Muslim and this is a Muslim country. I always wanted to live here”declared Karim Benzema just after signing up for three years with the Al-Ittihad Club.
