Al-Ittihad manager Nuno Espirito Santo has informed Karim Benzema that the Ballon d'Or winner is not in his plans. According to the Saudi Arabian newspaper Al-Sharq Al-Awsat, there is tension between the two in the dressing room. The report also claims that Santo didn't want the signing of the Frenchman. The former Tottenham Hotspur and Wolverhampton Wanderers boss feels that the 35-year-old does not fit his system.
Benzema requested to be the captain of the side. However, his request has been denied by Nuno Espirito Santo. The 2022 Ballon d'Or winner left La Liga giants Real Madrid on the expiry of his contract. He signed a two-and-a-half-year deal with Al-Ittihad worth €600 million. He has yet to score for his new club in his first two appearances but did bag an assist in the 3-0 victory over Al-Raed.
It remains to be seen what will happen next, but such an argument is only likely to end one way, with one of the parties involved leaving the club.

In 260 official matches so far, FC Barcelona have won th El Claisco 103 times while Real Madrid have won 105 times. 52 matches between them have been drawn.
Since Lionel Messi left his first team FC Barcelona in 2021, Barcelona have played 15 games against Real Madrid in El-Clasico football matches. Barcelona won 8 times while losing 7 times in those games.
Barcelona's record-goal scorer Lionel Messi remained the face of the Catalan giants throughout his trophy-laden stint at Camp Nou, especially his terrific contributions in El-Clasico.
Often dubbed as one of the greatest footballers in the history of the beautiful game, goal-machine Messi used to run rings around Real Madrid even when his Ballon d'Or arch-rival Cristiano Ronaldo was at the peak of his powers.
There is no denying that the golden era of El Clasico came to an end when Ronaldo left Santiago Bernabeu in 2018.
Three years after Ronaldo's sensational transfer to Juventus, record-time Ballon d'Or winner Messi made headlines when he ended his long association with FC Barcelona in 2021.
After Messi joined Kylian Mbappe and Neymar at Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), arch-rivals Barcelona and Real Madrid played out the first-ever Clasico without Messi or Ronaldo in the 2021/22 season since 2007.
El-Clasico: How many times have Barcelona defeated Madrid without Messi?
Not just Ronaldo, Messi has an edge over all La Liga icons when it comes to playing El-Clasico matches in the Spanish top flight. With 26 goals for Barcelona, Messi left Camp Nou as the all-time top goalscorer in the history of El-Clasico.
In his final Clasico appearance, Messi failed to inspire Barcelona as Real Madrid battled past Blaugrana at the Bernabeu in 2021. Since Messi's transfer to PSG, Barcelona have met Real Madrid in 12 competitive games.
In those 15 El-Clasico games, Barcelona won 8 times while Real Madrid won 7 times. None of those games has been drawn

Real Madrid have won 105 El-Clasico matches, while Barcelona have won 103 times, excluding the exhibition games where Barcelona has dominated the Los Blancos.
El Clasico refers to a match between two of Spain's biggest teams, FC Barcelona and Real Madrid. The rivalry goes beyond the football field as Madrid, the capital of Spain and Barcelona, the capital of Catalonia's autonomous community, have shared their fair share of political tension over the years.
Initially, the term was only used for the matches in the domestic Spanish championship, La Liga. Over the years, however, it's been globally recognised for every single meeting, such as in the UEFA Champions League or even domestic cup competitions like the Copa del Rey and Supercopa de España.
With both teams boasting big budgets and reputations that appeal to world-class performers across the planet, their respective ranks have been loaded with match-winners over the years.
Here we have for you a breakdown of the games the two giants have played!

In the counterattack, everyone thought Raphinha was offside. Everyone had stopped, and Ferran Torres sent the ball past the goalkeeper for the second goal of the night.
