Benzema is one of the players whose contract ends in June, and although his continuity was initially taken for granted, the latest news suggest that his preferred destination could be Saudi Arabia.
The French legend is more likely to leave Real Madrid than stay, according to José Félix Diaz of Marca. Benzema would earn 200 million euros in two seasons in Saudi Arabia, something he's considering seriously.
This week will be critical for Benzema to announce his decision, to stay or leave Real Madrid. The game versus Athletic Club on Sunday at the Santiago Bernabéu could be the last for the white legend.
If he leaves, another striker will join apart from Joselu, as the club will not be left with a single option in the attack line as it happened this season.
