According to reports, Nuno Espirito Santo has warned the Al-Ittihad board that Real Madrid legend Karim Benzema does not fit into his tactical style.
According to a shocking revelation in the Saudi publication Al-Sharq Al-Awsat, Nuno has warned the board that Benzema does not fit his style.
They further claim that the former Tottenham manager did not request the signing of the former considerable Madrid striker, causing considerable tension in the dressing room between the two men.
Benzema is also alleged to have asked captaincy at Al-Ittihad, but the Portuguese coach turned him down. The Ballon d’Or winner is ‘not comfortable’ working in the current climate at Al-Ittihad, which might lead to a shock transfer.
Benzema has played twice for Al-Ittihad this season, and while he hasn’t scored, he did provide an assist in a 3-0 victory over Al-Raed.
