Real Madrid’s ace striker Karim Benzema will leave the club after his contract expires at the end of the season.
On Sunday, Real Madrid released an official statement about the departure of the veteran striker. “Real Madrid CF and our captain Karim Benzema have agreed to end his brilliant and unforgettable period as a player for our club. Real Madrid wants to show its gratitude and all its affection for someone who is already one of our greatest legends,” Real Madrid said in an official statement.
“Next Tuesday, June 6, at 12:00 noon, an institutional act of tribute and farewell to Karim Benzema will take place at Real Madrid City, in the presence of our president Florentino Perez.”
In 2009, at the age of 21, Karim Benzema found his way to Los Blancos and since then he has been a fundamental figure in creating a golden decade for the Spanish Giants.
