Karim Benzema's Move to Al-Ittihad, N'Golo Kante, others set to follow suit

Posted : 07 June 2023
Karim Benzema has officially signed a three-year contract with Saudi Arabian champions Al-Ittihad, following his departure from Real Madrid. The deal is reported to be worth over €100m per season.
 
Additionally, there are rumors of N'Golo Kante from Chelsea joining Benzema in the Arabian Peninsula, with a similar lucrative offer on the table.
 
Other notable players like Cristiano Ronaldo and potentially Lionel Messi have also made moves to the Saudi Pro League, indicating the league's growing allure.
 
"It's a good league and there are many good players," said Benzema.
 
 "Cristiano Ronaldo is already there, a friend which shows Saudi Arabia is starting to further progress its level. I am here to win, like I did in Europe.
 
"I have been fortunate to achieve amazing things in my career and achieve everything I can in Spain and Europe. It now feels the time is right for a new challenge and project."
 
Carlo Ancelotti expresses surprise as Karim Benzema departs Real Madrid for Al-Ittihad, reigning Saudi Pro League Champions
 
“Yes it was a surprise, it was a massive surprise for everyone, but we had to understand that he thought about it twice and this is part of a process that started at this club some years ago, a transition that will continue next season," Ancelotti said.
 
“So, we have enough time to think about what we need to do (to replace Benzema) and the squad will be very competitive next season, I can assure you of that.”
