MADRID – Karim Benzema is officially leaving Real Madrid after 14 years to direct his steps to the exotic, specifically to the Al Ittihad team, operating in Saudi Arabia.
Manager Carlo Ancelotti admitted he was surprised by the Frenchman’s decision, but given Benzema’s legendary status, everyone respected him. Benzema scored 238 goals in 439 matches in the White Ballet shirt. Real face a difficult task to replace his shooting qualities in the team.
Most recently, the representatives of the big Madrid club were supposed to focus on a possible replacement. According to the Spanish newspaper Marca, she could be the 29-year-old experienced striker Harry Kane. He is also linked with a transfer to Manchester United, where the manager Erik ten Hag himself was supposed to request him. However, the English striker is also being watched by Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich.

The 29-year-old Tottenham player has scored a respectable 378 goals in 582 games but has no trophies to his name for the London club, which could change at Real.
Real reportedly sees the English ‘Hurricane’ as a suitable alternative for Benzema, while Kane could inherit the number 9 in Madrid, worn by the aforementioned Golden Ball winner.
The English newspaper Daily Mail claims that Real is willing to pay one hundred million pounds for Kane, which could suit club director Daniel Levy. He does not want to sell his team’s biggest star to Premier League rivals under any circumstances. Kane could thus be heading to Madrid, where he could try to replace the shooting services of Karim Benzema.
