Benzema He has been interviewed on the French channel Telefoot where he has talked about the Champions League won with Real Madrid, but also aboutand Mbappe and his decision to stay at PSG and not sign for Real Madrid.
“Mbappé? I would have liked him to have been able to fulfill his dream of playing for Real Madrid,” Benzema began, adding that “he chose PSG and we must respect him. He’s young, it’s his choice, he has a lot of responsibilities.” Benzema assured that their friendship has not been affected by Mbappé’s decision. “We’ll enjoy playing together in the national team. We’re good friends, it won’t affect our relationship,” he said, ending by stating that “everyone makes their own decisions. Real Madrid is Real Madrid. I’m not disappointed, I’m happy and I hope they do things good”.
about the end of the Champions, Benzema He explained that the one won in Paris was “the most difficult, the most beautiful because from the round of 16 we face great teams” and added that he is “happy, proud, with many emotions, very happy. I think I still don’t realize it” . The Frenchman said about the match that it was a final, a high-level football match. The main thing was to go home with 0-0 at the break. Then, in the second half, we played our football a little more”, to highlight the role of Courtois: “A team needs to have a goalkeeper who saves you with stops in actions that are where it is almost a goal. For that we thank him”.
Benzema scored a goal before the break that was disallowed for offside. “I spoke with the referee, I asked him if the offside was for a lot. He told me about it…”, he said, to add that “I think that goal, even offside and disallowed, gave us a little more of trust”, explained Benzema, who also spoke of the duo that he forms with vinicius: “This year we scored a lot of goals, a lot of assists and that’s good. But it’s because we’re at the top. We’ve had a great season, but that’s all”.
Benzema he was the captain of Real Madrid in the final, but he yielded to Marcelo pick up the Champions and be the first to raise it to the sky of Paris. “He is the captain, the first captain and he deserved it, he is a club legend. He has not played the last few games, but he is present, he helps the youngest”, Benzema said about Marcelo, to add that “it was something natural, nothing was planned. He is the first captain and for me, it is normal”.
Benzema sounds to be Golden Ball. “As I’ve already said, it’s a dream. I did better than last year and I hope it gets closer,” he said, adding that “I’ve had a great season, I’ve won titles, I’ve scored important goals… We’ve all done It was a great season, but, as I always say, to win titles you have to score important goals and I did it”, declared Benzema.
