Real Madrid tag Arsenal's offer for
Karim Benzema embarrassing
- Arsenal's 40 million bid for Karim
Benzema has been slammed by Florentino
Perez
- Benzema has struggled for form this
season and Madrid are planning to offload
him
- Arsene Wenger has been a long time
admirer of the French international
Real Madrid's president Florentino
Perez has slammed Arsenal for making
an embarrassing bid for their French
front-man Karim Benzema.
The European champions have struggled
to hit the height they were last season
and that has been largely down to
Benzema's poor showing in front of goal
this season.
This has led to the rumors that Madrid
are planning to sell Benzema but it
looks like the French man will not be
sold for cheap.
Reports reaching LETSKNOW claim that
figure around £40 million is way below
Perez's valuation of the front-man and
was immediately rejected.
Benzema has endured a miserable
season, netting only two goals in his
first 13 games and a double against
Champions League minnows Apoel
Nicosia on Tuesday, November 21 has
not changed Perez's desire to move him
on after eight years in Spain.
The former Lyon striker has been
linked with a move to the Emirates for a
number of seasons and despite his lack
of goals Arsene Wenger is keen to
bolster his attack, with contract rebels
Sanchez and Mesut Ozil looking more
and more likely to leave at the end of
their current deals.
What is clear is that if Arsenal and
Arsene Wenger really wish to lure
Benzema to the Emirates, they will have
to pay a huge sum to convince Real
Madrid chiefs.
