Is Karim Benzema’s future still being written at Al-Ittihad?

Enough to give rise to certain rumors of departure, which does not seem to worry its leaders too much.
Confidence is indeed essential among the Yellow and Black.

“Karim Benzema would change Juventus”
If the trend is therefore to see him return to Al-Ittihad, some would welcome him. This is particularly the case of Khéphren Thuram who, after Juventus’ victory against Naples (3-0) on Sunday in Serie A, made a big appeal to “KB9”. “He is happy in Saudi Arabia but if he wants to come, we would be delighted”he blurted out on DAZN.
“Football is evolving. Today, the great players reach their forties. Benzema is 38 years old but he is intelligent, he knows how to score goals and he won a Ballon d’Or (in 2022)added the bianconero midfielder.
He would make the difference at Juventus, in Serie A and in all international competitions. Benzema would change Juventus. »
