Karim Benzema Close To Shock, Switch To Al Hilal

Karim Benzema is on the verge of completing a high-profile move within the Saudi Pro League, with Al Hilal closing in on a deal to sign the French superstar from Al Ittihad.

The 38-year-old forward is reportedly keen on the transfer after contract extension talks with Al Ittihad broke down. Sources indicate that a 1.5-year agreement has already been reached, with the final details of the mega deal now nearing completion.

If finalized, the move would represent one of the most significant intra-league transfers in Saudi football history, further underlining Al Hilal’s ambition to strengthen their squad with elite global talent.

An official announcement is expected soon as all parties move toward completing the deal.
