Clapping Karim Benzema Source: SITA/AP
RIYADH – The French striker Karim Benzema came under heavy criticism after his team Al-Ittihad lost to Al-Nassr (2:5), whose jersey is worn by Cristiano Ronaldo.
Last summer, Benzema decided to leave Real Madrid after 14 long seasons to head to Saudi Arabia, where he signed a contract until 2026. The Frenchman has had a good start to the season, but in recent weeks, confidence in the experienced striker has been waning. After losing to Cristiano Ronaldo in the match against Al-Nassr, Benzema was also opposed by his own fans.
The supporters of Al-Ittihad, after three losses in a row, blame Benzema for his weak contribution in the offensive, while they started to nickname him Ben-Hazima, which means the son of failure. After harsh criticism and some insults, the 36-year-old forward even deleted his Instagram account.
In addition, Benzema was supposed to leave Jeddah and was absent from the team’s last two training sessions without reason. According to local media, Benzema left the city on the eve of the match against Al-Tai. In the end, the match was postponed to February 7 due to bad weather. The Frenchman scored 12 goals in 20 games, including 5 assists in all competitions. The source informed relovo.com.
