Real Madrid expect veteran midfielder to leave for Saudi Arabia next summer
At the end of last season, Karim Benzema brought his incredible 14-year career at Real Madrid to an end. The former French international became one of many established players to make the switch to Saudi Arabia as he joined Al-Ittihad.
Benzema wasn’t the only Real Madrid that could’ve left for the Middle East this summer, as Luka Modric had also been offered a mega-bucks contract from a club in Saudi Arabia. However, he turned it down in order to sign a one-year extension with Los Blancos.
