Benzema returns to Santiago Bernabéu.. Florentino Pérez has a total agreement with Al-Ittihad
Karim Benzema left Real Madrid last summer and was the great loss of Real Madrid in the last transfer market. The French forward left the Santiago Bernabéu aside and is now a player for Al-Ittihad of Saudi Arabia. A substantial change that has left the white club touched, but that does not end up disrupting all of Florentino Pérez ‘s plans.
Real Madrid, however, has lost a lot with the farewell of Benzema . The French forward was the great leader of the white club and the great scorer. His departure has left the merengue team without so many goals and without insurance at an offensive level. In addition, now it no longer generates so much fear in its rivals.
Real Madrid tried to make a star signing this past summer, but in the end they did not achieve their goal . No star in the center forward position and staying with Joselu Mato as the great reference. However, luckily, other footballers have appeared to make up for the goals they don’t have from Benzema.
And since this new Benzema has not yet been found, Florentino Pérez will continue the search . It could be that next January, or more likely in the summer of 2024, it will be possible to sign a star striker who will become the new Benzema. And one of the candidates is Endrick Felipe, a player who will become a Merengue before the start of the next season.
Benzema will say goodbye to the Merengues fans
And it is that Karim Benzema, despite looking for new areas and a new life away from the first level of professional football, also has the white club and a possible return to the Santiago Bernabéu very much in mind.
Marca does explain is that Real Madrid is considering the return of Benzema to the white stadium to play a friendly match. Talks would already be taking place with Al-Ittihad, who would face up to play this match as a tribute to their great star.
The idea of the white club is to meet again at the Santiago Bernabéu so that the Merengues fans can say goodbye definitively to Benzema . It will be a full-fledged tribute after his hasty farewell this past summer. And a way to close his successful circle with Real Madrid.
A desire of Benzema, but also of Florentino Pérez, who continues to think that the best thing to do is to play this tribute duel . The French forward will defend the colors of Al-Ittihad, a club with which he still has a contract until 2026, but he could also wear the Real Madrid shirt for the last time.
