After arriving in Saudi Arabia on Wednesday evening, Karim Benzema will be presented by his new club Al-Ittihad, where he will continue to wear his number 9 shirt.
Karim Benzema arrived in Jeddah on Wednesday evening to sign a three-year contract with Al-Ittihad Tigers, crowned Saudi Arabian champions for the 9th time in their history. The contract will net the 35-year-old French striker 200 million euros a year.
