The decision Real Madrid made with Karim Benzema after eliminating Chelsea in the Champions League

Real Madrid eliminated Chelsea from the Champions League quarterfinals, Carlo Ancelotti's team showed great football and defeated their rival by an aggregate score of 4-0. In the semifinals they will face Manchester City or Bayern Munich, two great rivals that can cause several problems for Madrid.

Chelsea was not a strong rival for Real Madrid, although in a few minutes they suffered but the strikers of the "Blues" missed several opportunities and striker Rodrygo Goes scored two goals to eliminate the team from the Premier League. Now Carlo Ancelotti hopes that his team will be better.

Karim Benzema was unable to score in the second leg against Chelsea and ultimately came out of the game. The French striker has had a difficult season between injuries and loss of play, although in important games he continues to show that he is the best player on the team.

Benzema ends his contract with Real Madrid at the end of the season, the French striker wants to stay at the club but asks for a two-year contract and a salary of 20 million euros per season. This has complicated negotiations and President Florentino Pérez.
