Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti, gave no further indication of Real Madrid defeat Barcelona”>Karim Benzema‘s fate against PSG. “He hasn’t played for almost a month, but it’s Karim, not a new player who has to adapt.”, slipped the Italian tactician. Enough to leave the door open to the presence of his star striker.
Karim Benzema is one of Real Madrid’s mainstays this season. The French totals 24 goals in all competitions with the White House. Madrid’s top scorer would be a valuable asset to his team. And even if they can count on the shape of Vincius Jr. (15 goals, 10 assists), the presence of Benzema could change things.
The Frenchman, however, denied a certain dependence of Real on his performances. “I don’t take it as an addiction because the team was able to win without me.“In his absence, the people of Madrid were eliminated from the Copa del Rey in the quarter-finals by Athletic Bilbao before gleaning 4 out of 6 points in the league against Granada and Villareal.
Benzema is hungry for football. And only wants one thing: to play this match against PSG without risking injury. A very clear desire, like one of his last tweets (below).
