There is no turning back for Real Madrid. Karim Benzema will finally not continue at the club after spending 14 years at the club since 2009. The Frenchman will leave as the current Ballon d'Or winner and as a figure worldwide. At 35, the former Olympique de Lyon wants to secure his future with a multi-million dollar offer.
This Sunday, the white club made its departure official through a statement on its website and which it later spread through all its social networks: "Real Madrid C.F. and our captain Karim Benzema have agreed to put an end to his brilliant and unforgettable stage as player of our club. Show your gratitude and all your love to who is already one of our greatest legends.
Undoubtedly, Carlo Ancelotti loses an extraordinary player in his squad. We will have to wait to find out who Madrid will negotiate with to replace Benzema. The Frenchman does know where he will finally go. Karim will meet Cristiano Ronaldo in the Saudi Arabian league, although they will be rivals next season.
