Days Karim Benzema “real Madrid” are numbered, but where the striker end up next season? The Spanish expert Sky Sports Football Terry Gibson is looking at various options.
Benzema, 30, was on the “Santiago Bernabeu stadium” for nine years, but is currently enduring a lean campaign in front of the gate.
The French striker has managed just nine goals in all competitions for the Champions of Europe and La Liga, including only five in the League, scoring his worst season since his debut season at the club.
Gibson believes that the time has come for both parties to go this summer, they parted ways.
“Real Madrid are doing nothing of the sentiments,” he said in the podcast La Liga. “Maybe Zidane can, but not real.
“The more I look at Benzema, as the season progresses, it is obvious that they need to invest in one of the best centre-forwards around.
“He’s very, very good player. You will not survive in the “real world” wearing the no 9 as long as he did, with some real competition, as Gonzalo Higuain in the first half of his career, when it was about who would you good”.
Benzema drew another blank, as the real Madrid away defeated Malaga 2-1 at La Rosaleda on Sunday evening, the match frontman, his position should be want to leave their mark on, According to Gibson.
“He just lost his way, lost form and has clearly lost confidence,” he said. “He needs to score a goal [Central defenders of Malaga] Miguel Torres and Ignasi Miquel with “real” players created chances.

“It was not chance after chance after chance for him. He was selfless, and he’s still a very good centre-forward.
“But if you are a real Madrid striker, you must score more than five goals a season.”
So Where is Benzema, whose contract at the “Santiago Bernabeu” expires summer 2021, in the end, if he leaves Madrid at the end of the season?
“It will be one of the best teams in the Premier League “Manchester United” “man city” – he’s still at this level and I think he should leave real Madrid,” said Gibson.
“I don’t want to play for the next batch of Premier League teams. Not being disrespectful, but I couldn’t see him playing for West ham or Everton or Newcastle, one of the teams that is at the top.
“Arsenal are already occupied by strikers, Chelsea…?”

However, the former “Manchester United” and “Tottenham” forward, thinks it is more likely that Benzema will return home this summer.
“The point I’m trying to make is he is still a quality player who lost his way in the “real world”, and I think for both sides it would be better if he will leave,” he said.
“I wouldn’t be surprised if he goes back to one of the biggest clubs in France. What would be the probability if he returned to PSG or Monaco, Marseille, one of the biggest clubs in France.”
