Karim Benzema To Leave Spanish Giants Real Madrid After 14 Years

Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema has agreed a deal to end his glittering era at the club, the Spanish side said Sunday. The forward, 35, has been heavily linked this week with a lucrative move to Saudi Arabia. "Real Madrid and our captain Karim Benzema have agreed to put an end to his brilliant and unforgettable era as a player at our club," said Los Blancos in a statement. "Madrid want to show their gratitude and all their love to someone who is one of our greatest legends." The announcement comes after Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti had said Saturday there was "no doubt" about Benzema's future being at Madrid, noting the forward had one more year left on his contract.
