Karim Benzema, one of Real Madrid's most important players in recent years, is set to end his time in European football after 14 seasons at the club. The Frenchman, whose contract expires in a few weeks, has reportedly rejected the possibility of renewing his contract, agreeing to receive offers from the international market.

Among them, the one made by Al Ittihad, a Saudi League team that offered the player a contract for two years and more than 400 million euros. According to Arab media, the 35-year-old, who won the Ballon d'Or in 2022, has already accepted the contract. Among those that stood out was the one made by Al Ittihad, a Saudi League team that offered the player a contract for two years and more than 400 million euros.

According to Arab media, the 35-year-old, who won the Ballon d'Or in 2022, has already accepted the deal. Benzema would leave Real Madrid with a total of 24 titles: four La Liga titles, five Champions League titles, three Copa del Rey titles, three Spanish Super Cups, four UEFA Super Cups and five FIFA Club World Cups. He also scored 353 goals in the Merengue shirt, leaving behind legends such as Raúl González and Alfredo di Stefano.

Farewell legend

While the impact of Benzema's departure has shocked the world, Liverpool also announced that Roberto Firmino, who was a legend of the team, could follow in the footsteps of the Frenchman and, seduced by the millions, could decide to play in Saudi Arabia, where Cristiano Ronaldo, who receives a salary of 200 million dollars, is also playing.
