Very present on social networks for many years, Karim Benzema has deleted his Instagram account. Explanations.
A little over a year ago, he was still settling scores with coach Didier Deschamps following his hasty departure from Qatar before the Blues entered the World Cup. An episode which preceded the announcement of his international retirement. Karim Benzema has always been very present on social networks, more particularly on Twitter (now X) and Instagram. Two tools that he masters to perfection.
From his passion for fashion to his “lifestyle”, obviously including his sporting prowess and his travels, the Real Madrid legend has always used Instagram to ensure a connection with his fans. His enigmatic stories, his admiration for 2Pac, or his lively live with YouTuber Mohamed Henni are also on everyone’s minds. But for several weeks, it has no longer been possible to find Karim Benzema’s official account on Instagram.
When did Karim Benzema delete his Instagram account?
It was exactly on December 27 that Karim Benzema deactivated his Instagram account. His club, Al Ittihad, had just conceded a humiliating defeat against Al-Nassr (2-5), the team of his former Real Madrid friend, Cristiano Ronaldo.
Why did Karim Benzema deactivate his Instagram account?
According to the indiscretions of the media Goal Arabia, it is the current treatment to which Karim Benzema would be subject which would have encouraged the French striker to leave Instagram. Target of numerous criticisms, both in the media and from fans, the former Lyonnais would not be insensitive to this barrage of negative comments. Benzema, who joined Saudi Arabia with the desire to follow in the footsteps of Cristiano Ronaldo, will try to reverse the trend. A challenge well within the ropes of the 2023 Ballon d’Or.
