Benzema Keeps Real Madrid Return Possible as He Weighs Uncertain Al-Ittihad Future

The 37-year-old will weigh European bids pending clarity on Al-Ittihad's project.

Overview

  • He confirms his Al-Ittihad contract is nearing its end and says he still sees himself playing for two more years.
  • He says he has active offers from European clubs and will not rush a decision on his next move.
  • He leaves the door open to a Real Madrid reunion, saying it "could happen" if Florentino Pérez remains president.
  • He cites Al-Ittihad's sporting uncertainty and the need for a clear plan as key factors in whether he stays.
  • He assesses Madrid's current squad, saying it lacks a clear leader and urging Kylian Mbappé to combine more with Vinícius Júnior because he "can’t do it alone."
