According to a report by Spanish outlet SPORT, Karim Benzema faces an uncertain future at Al-Ittihad. The situation has not gone unnoticed, with Carlo Ancelotti pushing Real Madrid to re-sign him. Meanwhile, Arsenal and Chelsea are also interested in the 36-year-old striker.
Karim Benzema: Miserable in Saudi Arabia
Karim Benzema shocked one and all by leaving Real Madrid to move to Saudi Arabia in the summer transfer window. While the Frenchman was in the twilight of his career, no one could have foreseen his decision. But he has not been a happy camper since arriving in the Saudi Pro League.
While the 36-year-old has been a prolific customer in the final third, he has grown in frustration at Al-Ittihad. The veteran striker has contributed to 17 goals in 20 appearances thus far this season, finding the back of the net 12 times while providing five assists. But Benzema’s long-term future at Al-Ittihad is uncertain.
A Man in Demand
The former French international recently invited controversy when he did not turn up at Al-Ittihad’s training camp. That has rubbed Marcelo Gallardo the wrong way, and Benzema’s future has become the subject of speculation. The situation has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of Arsenal and Chelsea. Meanwhile, Carlo Ancelotti wants Real Madrid to re-sign him.
It is surprising to see the two London clubs showing interest in the experienced striker. But Benzema has shown at Al-Ittihad that he remains a prolific attacker. So, Arsenal and Chelsea can use him as a short-term solution amid their inconsistencies in the final third.
Set to Return to Real Madrid?
As for Real Madrid, Carlo Ancelotti can do with an additional attacker as the games come thick and fast in the second half of the 2023/24 season. But with Arsenal and Chelsea also keen, it will be interesting to see where he lands. Recent reports have claimed that the 36-year-old would prefer to join Real Madrid over other suitors.
