For the past couple of years, Real Madrid fans have blamed Karim Benzema for the team's misfortunes, frequently demanding his exit from the club. That wish may be granted to them this summer, as Florentino Pérez will allow the player's departure once the 2017-18 season comes to a close.
According to a report by As, the French ace is tired of being constantly slammed by Los Blancos' fans, and he would be keen on returning to his country for good. Olympique Lyon, Marseille, Monaco and PSG would be his potential destinations, with his former club having the upper hand on the possible bid.
OL would like to have Benzema back if former Real Madrid striker Mariano leaves the club next summer. If they can't meet Los Blancos' asking price for KB9, then Monaco or PSG would become suitable options for the striker.
Added to the harsh criticism received by Real Madrid fans, Benzema would like to return to France in order to return to the French National Team. Benzema has been banished from Les Bleus for three years, following his alleged involvement in a blackmail case against his former team-mate, Mathieu Valbuena.
