French striker Karim Benzema is not having the best of times in Saudi Arabia. He has had a physical decline, some disagreements with the club, and is not enjoying the league. This has led to many rumors about a possible return to Europe.
In the midst of these rumors, some have placed him back at Real Madrid. In fact, one report claimed that Carlo Ancelotti was willing to sign him, but Florentino Pérez had refused.
Benzema’s brother did not hesitate to react to this information by writing the word “lie” in all caps, along with a Pinocchio nose emoticon and three laughing emoticons.
Apparently, everything that is coming out has nothing to do with reality. It is true that the player is not going through a good streak, but that does not mean anything. It all coincides with when some players begin to feel uncomfortable with the Saudi league. In fact, some have regretted leaving Europe.
End of an era
All of the Real Madrid legends who have left the club in recent years have returned later, but not as footballers. Karim Benzema could have retired at the club of his life, but he decided to accept a scandalous offer from Saudi Arabia.
Real Madrid will always be Karim Benzema’s home, but when the player decided to leave, he closed the door forever to being part of the first team.
