Karim Benzema’s outstanding performance, including a double in the clasico against FC Barcelona, has once again highlighted his importance as one of Real Madrid’s top strikers. With interest from major European clubs like Manchester City and Arsenal, the Franco-Algerian forward could potentially make a move to Chelsea next summer to join José Mourinho.
According to Talksport, Mourinho, who is keen on bolstering Chelsea’s attacking options after failing to secure Wayne Rooney, has identified Benzema as a prime target for the striker position at the club.
While Benzema’s future at Real Madrid remains uncertain as he hasn’t yet extended his contract, Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti has expressed his desire to see him continue with the team, praising his consistent performances and goal-scoring ability.
Mourinho’s hopes of securing Benzema’s signature will largely depend on whether the French striker decides to extend his contract with Real Madrid.
