At the end of his contract at Real Madrid, Karim Benzema has chosen to leave after 14 years in the Spanish capital. This did not prevent the Frenchman from causing a final controversy after his departure. An episode quickly forgotten after a small correction on social networks.
In his first speech in his new colors, Karim Benzema was not original. The Al-Ittihad striker said to himself ” happy to join this mythical club “, In “ a beautiful muslim country » which has a championship in full development. It was noted that the Frenchman forgot to mention his annual salary estimated at 200 million euros, as well as the reasons for his sudden divorce from Real Madrid.
Benzema zapped Real
Their split indeed came as a surprise given that the former Merengue seemed to be heading for an extension. At least that was the trend relayed for several months. Beyond the obviously difficult to refuse Saudi offer, would Karim Benzema and the White House have separated because of a disagreement? The hypothesis cannot be excluded. Especially after the little controversy of the past few days. Following his departure from Real Madrid, where the former Madrid captain spent 14 years, N’Golo Kanté’s new teammate took an astonishing initiative on social networks.

Karim Benzema suddenly decided not to follow the Spanish vice-champion on Instagram. Unsurprisingly, this did not escape some Internet users and the controversy appeared. It must be said that the striker trained at Olympique Lyonnais gave the impression of leaving on bad terms with his former leaders, and of wanting to draw a final line on the Merengue. The Madrid supporters therefore did not appreciate it.
Finally, Karim Benzema wanted to put an end to all these interpretations. The man many consider a Real Madrid legend has ended up following the Spanish capital club again on Instagram. Note that before this mini-controversy, it was first the Liga resident who “unfollow” Karim Benzema. A habit for the club which only follows the players of its workforce on social networks.
