French striker Karim Benzema, 38 years old, terminated his contract with Al Hilal, thus ending his adventure at the club in Riyadh. The decision was officially confirmed by the Saudi club.
The player arrived at Al Hilal in June 2023, coming from Real Madrid, where he spent 14 seasons and became one of the greatest goal scorers in the history of the Spanish club.
During his time at the Saudi club, Benzema faced some injuries that limited his presence on the pitch, affecting his performance and consistency throughout the season.
The Frenchman's departure comes at a time when Al Hilal continues to invest in big names from European football, in a strategy aimed at establishing itself as a sporting powerhouse in Saudi Arabia.
