Just like many other players, Benzem chose money and he joined Arabian teams when left he is getting old to earn more money there.
I think Benzema made a wise move and Real Madrid should now hire an alternative player for this position. Mbappe is the first priority and I guess Mbappe can fill Benzema's position at Real Madrid perfectly.
It’s not always about money, he has made his decision and left to join the team he feels he’ll feel comfortable to play for. If it is always about money, then every player must have joined the Saudi side clubs when they receive big offers. He is a well established player and he has won everything he needs to win in Europe, it’s now time to try another league before he retires.
If Mbappe's transfer to Real Madrid takes place, a football player who will play successfully for many years as Real Madrid Benzema will be brought to the team. I believe Mbappe will outperform Benzema. What he's done for PSG is obvious and he's a perfect player statistically.
There’s no positive news concerning that move yet even though Real Madrid is taking a close look and interest in him with his current club. You most have forgotten Vini Jnr who has been doing exceptionally well for the team, you don’t think of him being one of the best players in the club like Benzema has achieved over the years? Mbappe and Vini Jnr duo will be great but I don’t know who’ll be greatest of all time in the club if they both get to play together in the same time at the club.
