After several weeks of absence, Karim Benzema (36) will make his return to the field of the Saudi club Al-Ittihad.

Although announced on departure, the former Real Madrid center forward ultimately remained in Saudi Arabia.

Added to his tense relationship with coach Marcelo Gallardo, Benzema was not having a smooth ride, but he should return to the field soon.

Indeed, as reported by the media Olé , Benzema returned to training on Monday, and his “return depends on him and his physical state during the current period” indicates Marcelo Gallardo.

The next match takes place tomorrow evening, against Al Ta’ee in the championship.
