Disappointed, Benzema slammed the door!

Faced with an extension of the contract offered by Real Madrid, Karim Benzema reportedly made a “face,” before eventually choosing to join Saudi Arabia.

After fourteen years in Real Madrid, where he became a club legend and one of the world’s best players, Benzema decided to decline the White House’s offer to extend his one-year contract to accept the Saudi Arabian gold bridge.

A love story that didn’t end badly, but it didn’t end well either… Indeed, the new star striker from Al Ittihad recently unsubscribed from Real Madrid’s Instagram account. This made a lot of noise on the other side of the Pyrenees.

The Ballon d’Or 2022 would have been disappointed to see that the extension offer sent to it did not reassess its salary, according to Spanish journalist Gerard Romero.

“Benzema had a renewal clause, but he winced when he saw he was going to get the same salary,” he said on Cadena SER’s El Larguero. Luka Modric never talked to Real Madrid about money. He did not take advantage of the offers he received (from Saudi Arabia).” With its new Saudi club, KB9 has initialed a three-year contract worth €27.5 million per year, excluding image rights.
