After Carvajal, Benzema will be the next to renew his contract

After the renewals of Nacho Fernandez and Dani Carvajal were made official, the next Real Madrid player set to extend his contract with the club is Karim Benzema. Media outlets such as 'AS' and 'Marca' have already indicated that he will sign for just one more year, that is, until June 2023.

There is no news on the agreement between the board and the striker. The conditions remain the same. In principle, an agreement has been reached, just pending a few details to be closed. The idea is to announce it before the start of the 2021-22 season, in which the Frenchman is expected to be a key player.

After the departures of Sergio Ramos and Varane, he will be one of the captains of the squad. His experience as a Real Madrid player and his good level in the last few seasons have helped him to win the fans' and coaches' approval. Carlo Ancelotti faces his second spell at Bernabeu knowing that he is one of his best talents.

Moreover, there are no reports of any suitors trying to sign Benzema, so Real Madrid have a clear path to extend his contract. If all goes well and he signs until 2023, the club will ensure that he continues showing his quality for the 14th season in a row since he arrived from Olympique Lyon.
