The 35-year-old has been heavily linked this week with a lucrative move to Saudi Arabia.
REAL MADRID STRIKER Karim Benzema has agreed a deal to end his glittering era at the club, the Spanish side said on Sunday.“Real Madrid and our captain Karim Benzema have agreed to put an end to his brilliant and unforgettable era as a player at our club,” said Los Blancos in a statement.
The announcement comes after Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti had said Saturday there was “no doubt” about Benzema’s future being at Madrid, noting the forward had one more year left on his contract.
He is Real Madrid’s second top scorer of all-time, with 353 goals for Madrid, behind only Ronaldo on 450.
