KARIM BENZEMA TO JOIN AL ITTIHAD ON THREE-YEAR DEAL The 34-year-old striker is widely considered to be one of the best in the world, and his signing is a major coup for the Saudi Arabian club.

 Karim Benzema is set to join Saudi Arabian club Al Ittihad on a three-year deal, with an option for a further year. The 34-year-old striker has been with Real Madrid since 2009, and has won four Champions League titles, five La Liga titles, and three Copa del Rey titles during his time at the club. He is widely considered to be one of the best strikers in the world, and his signing is a major coup for Al Ittihad.

Benzema is expected to say goodbye to Madrid fans at the club's training ground on Tuesday, before traveling to Saudi Arabia to complete the formalities of his move. He is expected to be unveiled as an Al Ittihad player on Wednesday.

Benzema's move to Saudi Arabia is a sign of the growing financial power of the Saudi Arabian football league.


The league is also investing heavily in infrastructure, with plans to build a new state-of-the-art stadium in Jeddah.

Benzema's move is likely to have a major impact on the Saudi Arabian football league. He is a proven goalscorer at the highest level, and his arrival will boost the league's profile and attract more fans and sponsors. Benzema is also likely to help the league to compete with the European leagues for top talent.

It will be interesting to see how Benzema performs in the Saudi Arabian league. He is a world-class striker, but he will be playing in a league that is not as competitive as La Liga. However, Benzema is a professional and he will be determined to prove himself in his new surroundings.
