Karim Benzema shows off his talent for Real Madrid
Karim Benzema is edging closer to breaking Raul’s goalscoring record and becoming Real Madrid’s second all-time leading marksman after netting in their 3-2 win over Sevilla on Sunday. The France international bagged his 39th goal of the campaign at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium. And that means his side are now on the cusp of yet another La Liga title.
Benzema has been outstanding for Madrid ever since the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo in 2018.
And he continued his sensational form by notching the winner against Sevilla on Sunday night to ensure they’re now on the verge of claiming the La Liga title.
Benzema’s goal at the death was his 318th for the club since arriving from Lyon back in the summer transfer window of 2009.
And he’s now just six behind Raul in their all-time scoring stats.
Benzema has notched 51 times more than Los Blancos icon Alfredo Di Stefano, who is widely recognised as one of their best-ever players.
