"Al-Ittihad" striker Karim Benzema has become the target of "Benfica"'s new head coach Jose Mourinho. Sport24.az reports that the 37-year-old French footballer's contract with the Saudi Arabian club expires next summer.
Mourinho wants to see Karim in his team. A return to Europe may require Benzema to significantly reduce his salary. It is not yet known whether he will agree to these conditions.
In addition, "Al-Ittihad" is already ready to consider offers in the range of 5-7 million euros this winter, which could speed up the transfer.
It should be noted that French and US clubs are also interested in the experienced striker. Since the beginning of the season, Benzema has played two games and scored three goals.
