It's official, Karim Benzema leaves Real Madrid for Saudi Arabia, look at his millionaire replacement

Real Madrid is experiencing some turbulent hours in what will be this end of the season and it is that in these last hours, the departure of Karim Benzema from the white team would already be confirmed. After speculation about a possible renewal until the 2023/24 period, the Frenchman finally did not take this option and will leave the team after June 30.

Benzema received a very tempting offer from Saudi Arabia which he did not hesitate to accept and right now, the player who knew how to wear the white shirt for a long 14 years will say goodbye to the Santiago Bernabéu. This coming Sunday, the Frenchman will play his last game with Real Madrid to embark on a trip to the Middle East.

It is estimated that Al-Ittihad, the recent champion in Saudi Arabia and the team that made Cristiano Ronaldo's title bitter, would be the club that signed the Merengue legend. In this context and given the departure of Mariano, Carlo Ancelotti is left without a center forward for next season and will seek to replace his departure with a world figure.

It is true that in recent days there has been a lot of talk about the possibility of Harry Kane dressing in white and it is that at 30 years old, the Englishman is at the height of his career and has also just turned 30. goals in the Premier League. However, Kane would not be Real Madrid's first choice.

The forward that Florentino wants in Madrid

Roberto Firmino was practically ruled out, since he was planned to be Benzema's substitute and now Florentino Pérez asked for the arrival of a new striker. In this case, one of Real Madrid's priorities will be to sign Julián Álvarez from Manchester City. The Argentine made lower divisions in the white team and although his departure from England seems impossible, from Valdebebas they will do everything possible to sign him.
