Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema considers his club the best in the world, so he does not intend to leave.

Karim Benzema is not going to leave Real Madrid in the near future. At least as long as he is a player in the base.

"I'm in the best club in the world. It's very nice, I'm proud, "- said Benzema in an interview with beIN Sports.

"Expectations here are very high, every season you start from scratch. It is necessary to work to stay at the highest level. If you are the main player in Real - there is no point in going somewhere. I think, now one of the best eras in the history of Real Madrid. Our team is very strong. This applies not only to the basis, but also to the spare, they also affect the course of the game ".

Also, Karim commented on the transfer of Neimar from Barcelona for 222 million euros.

"I will not say that I was surprised, because Neymar is free to do what he wants. Although it looks strange. But he had his own reasons, no doubt ".

It is worth noting that Benzema really does not need to worry about his place at the heart of Real Madrid. In the summer, Madrid sold Alvaro Morata to Chelsea and now Karim has only Borja Major in the competition, who failed to prove himself in Wolfsburg last season.

Because of a hamstring injury, Benzema will not return to the field until October. It is expected that in the near future Real will extend the contract with Karim, having registered a clausula of 1 billion euros.
