Karim Benzema's Latest Update at Al Hilal

Updated:2026-01-10 06:31    Views:190

Karim Benzema, the French striker who plays for Real Madrid and the Morocco national team, has made headlines again this week as he joined Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal.

The move was announced on Wednesday morning, with Benzema signing a five-year contract to join the club in January 2021. The deal is worth $5 million per year, which makes him one of the highest-paid players in the world.

Benzema has been linked with a move to several other clubs in Europe over the past few years, including Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester United, and Juventus. However, it seems that Al Hilal was the only club willing to meet his demands and offer him such a lucrative contract.

Benzema has already made an impact since joining Al Hilal, scoring two goals in his first two appearances for the club. He is also expected to play a key role in helping Al Hilal win the Saudi Professional League title this season.

However, despite his success so far, Benzema's move to Al Hilal has not gone down well with all fans and supporters of the club. Some have criticized the club for paying such a high price for a player who is not yet fully fit after recovering from injury.

Despite these criticisms, Benzema has shown that he is still capable of playing at the highest level and contributing to his new club's success. He will be hoping to continue his impressive form when Al Hilal take on their next opponents in the Saudi Professional League later this month.
