After gaining a second wind in his career, Karim Benzema will be tempted to hang up his football boots at the "Lyon" club.
31-year-old Frenchman, who has been playing for Madrid's "Real" club for more than 10 years, is far from the sunset of his career - last season he scored 30 goals, and in this season he has already scored 11 goals in 15 matches.
Legendary Brazilian Juninho, who works as sports director at "Lyon", revealed that K. Benzema will receive an offer in the future to return to his first team.
"My goal is to offer Karim to finish his career at the "Lyon" club", - revealed the Brazilian.
"He was born here, he feels this city. Why not make efforts on both sides and make it a reality? We cannot pay him the same salary as "Real", but we can wait for the right time.
The connection between us has never been lost. I feel that Karim would like to come back, because he always felt great respect for the "Lyon" club.
I want him to come back and play for two more seasons, and then start coaching our youth. Karim can become the leader we are currently missing. My dream is to see him finish his career here, in Lyon"," - Juninho, a legend of "Real", expressed beautiful words.
