The current owner of the Ballon d’Or, Karim Benzema, has still not extended his expiring contract with Real Madrid. According to the “Relevo” newspaper, the Spaniard has a lucrative offer to transfer to Saudi Arabia on the table.

Karim Benzema is the deserved winner of the prestigious Ballon d’Or poll for last season. The Frenchman was unrivaled and, together with Real Madrid, not only won the Spanish LaLiga, but also achieved his fifth triumph in the Champions League.

However, at the end of the season, his contract with the royal club from the Spanish capital will also expire. Until a certain moment, it seemed that everything was going to extend the cooperation. However, March is approaching and there has been no official progress in this matter yet. Is it possible that the captain of the “white ballet” will leave?

It is said that Karim Benzema does not like the approach of club officials towards coach Carlo Ancelotti. After every loss, there are reports about a possible change of coach, which the player does not like.

The Frenchman respects the Italian very much and is loyal to him. He will be 36 years old this year and he cannot imagine starting from scratch at Real Madrid and adapting to the tactics of another coach.

So it’s not necessarily the money, but the certainty that the 63-year-old coach will stay at the club, which is his priority.

If this condition is not met, Karim Benzema may look more favorably on what he has on the table. And allegedly a lucrative offer to transfer to Saudi Arabia appeared on it.

According to the information brought by the “Relevo” portal, an unknown club is offering him 60 million euros for two seasons. In addition, the 36-year-old player would become one of the ambassadors of the Saudi bid to host the World Cup in 2030. The representative of the Middle East wants to organize the tournament together with Egypt and Greece.

This season, the 97-time representative of France played a total of 23 matches. During this period, he scored 16 goals and added four assists.
