French Justice Decides To Open Old Cases Of Karim Benzema

The qualitative leap that Real Madrid achieved at the expense of Barcelona in recent weeks, by realizing an amazing success in the order of LaLiga, after the Covid19 crisis, is considered by many to be the product of an extraordinary brilliance of the French star Karim Benzema, who raised a lot of controversy about the reason to insist on his marginalization from the French national team and relying on players who are far from the technical and even moral levels of the Real Madrid star and one of the most crowning players in the history of football game over the years.

French newspapers confirmed that Karim Benzema will be summoned to court in the extortion case with the former player of the French team Mathieu Valbuena, a case which opened since six years ago and many thought that the file was permanently closed, to ensure that it would be opened again while dragging the player into suspicions of money laundering.

The story of Karim Benzema with the French national team ended forever. At the end of 2019, he reached thirty-two years old, and there are even those who gave Benzema some hope to play with the Algerian Greens, after he was relieved of his French nationality, and made the chairman of the Algerian Football Federation, Khaireddine Zatchi, talk about the impossibility to realize that, and in all these successes that Karim Benzema is achieving with his royal club, France returns to spoil his joy and assures that he will not finish judicial proceedings, and confirmed that the Real Madrid player will be called to Paris and there are those who see or wish that the player will be jailed in France once he will retire football, thinking that it is the worst conclusion of the great player, and it is clear that France will never forget his spit incident while listening to the French anthem.

The French media focuses on that Karim differs from Zinedine Zidane, because Zidane has finally left his Algerian surroundings, by marrying a Spanish woman and making all his friendships with the Europeans, while Benzema remains loyal to friends he met in his boyhood in Lyon from the Algerians, and even his friendships in the French national team like Samir Nasseri, Hatem Ben Arfa, Bilal Ribery and the son of Marseille, of Spanish origin, Mathieu Valbuena.

Accompanying his brothers who are attached to Algeria, and one of them in the European Champions League finals, in 2018, when Karim was waved the flag of Algeria in a picture that was seen by millions in the world and the cup with two ears after Real Madrid won against Liverpool the May 2018 final.

French justice wants to implicate Karim in the money-laundering case as well, and it will not keep Karim a witness and will be more dangerous to Karim Benzema than the extortion case that has harmed him and his family, especially since its series are long, and opening them is calculated from the player’s life and brilliance.

Karim Benzema had, since six years ago, previously admitted that he was a mediator between blackmailers and his former friend in the French team Valbuena who was involved in a scandalous and immoral video, which is a confession that would have dragged him to a long prison term and ruined his football career, even though he was 27.

Benzema is currently considered one of the rare players in the world who never got red football cards, whether direct or resulting from the second yellow card, but in his football history from the era of Lyon to Real Madrid he only got eight yellow cards, and during this season he has not yet had any yellow card, which is a distinguished number that is counted for the player who competed this year also and is still competing, Lionel Messi, in scoring goals, and since the Atletico Bilbao match he scored 17 goals, he also the supporters of Real Madrid forgot their legendary player Cristiano Ronaldo, and if Real Madrid will achieve the Spanish League title, it will be thanks to Karim Benzema, but if the royal club will win over Manchester City in the return match from the final price and will continue its success until the coronation of the European Champions League title, then Benzema will be like Ronaldo, and may be a strong candidate to win the title of the Golden Ball without the slightest help from France, and then he will become a historical icon in the world of the popular game.
