Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane believes that Karim Benzema is ready to give his all for Real Madrid, since receiving the bad news about not making it onto the France squad at Euro 2016.

Benzema was ruled out of the French side by the French Football Federation (FFF) due to a legal investigation into an alleged plot to blackmail his international team-mate Mathieu Valbuena.

After Saturday's 5-1 victory over Getafe Zidane told reporters, "Once Karim accepted he won't make the Euros, he knows his domestic routine is Real Madrid,

"He's a great professional and everything he does on the pitch for the team is important."
