When Al-Ittihad brought Karim Benzema to the Saudi Pro League, they were hoping the French star would lift the SPL, and while he has, with 9 goals in 15 games, his commitment to the cause has come under question.
According to Marca, Benzema is “stranded in Mauritius waiting to catch a flight to Dubai, where his club Al-Ittihad are waiting for him to begin pre-season training.” English tabloids have linked the former Real Madrid star to Chelsea, but a lot of reports in France have stated that Benzema wants out of his deal with Al-Ittihad which ends in June of 2026.
While Marcelo Gallardo’s side continues to wait for their biggest star, Benzema can’t complain about his lifestyle as he is reportedly worth $230 million.
