French player Karim Benzema, who currently plays for Saudi club Al-Ittihad Jeddah, visited the Real Madrid team camp to support his former teammates, who are in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to compete in the Spanish Super Cup.
Benzema held a session with Real Madrid players and met with coach Ancelotti, as well as several of the team’s stars, including Mbappé, Bellingham, and Rodrygo.
According to information from the Spanish newspaper “El Nacional,” in a surprising move before the highly anticipated Spanish Super Cup final between Real Madrid and Barcelona, Karim Benzema asked the team’s coach, Carlo Ancelotti, to include Moroccan star Brahim Díaz in the starting lineup.
The legend Benzema believes that the Moroccan player will be the key to Real Madrid’s victory in the match, and he is confident that Díaz has the ability to make a real difference in this crucial encounter. Benzema further stated that the Moroccan player will outperform all of the royal team’s attackers in this major confrontation.
Based on the great confidence Benzema showed in his teammate, Ancelotti began to consider the possibility of including Díaz as a starter, in a move that may surprise many of the team’s fans.
It seems that the Real Madrid coach is heading towards making a bold decision that could determine the outcome of the Spanish Super Cup final in favor of the team, especially with the strong competition from Barcelona.
In a special statement, Benzema said: “Brahim has all the skills necessary to destroy Barcelona’s defenses and decide the title in our favor.” This statement clearly shows the extent of the team’s legend’s belief in the abilities of the Moroccan player, who could play a decisive role in the upcoming Clasico.
