The Frenchman may play and Ancelotti will have his gala team. It’s believed that Karim is already fit for the game.
Real Madrid will have a second breath with Karim
Ancelotti has just made Real Madrid breathe. And he has done it forcefully. The Real Madrid coach has confirmed the information given by Spanish newspapers: Benzema will be at the Parc des Princes. He stopped on his way out of Valdebebas and, when asked “does Karim arrive in Paris?”, confirmed with a resounding “yes”. He will expand on this information at the press conference that is scheduled for a few minutes, specifically at 3:00 p.m. Immediately afterwards, Real Madrid will train for the last time before traveling to La Ceramica, where they will play their last game tomorrow, before heading to the Parque de los Principes.
One week of absence
Time was running out for Madrid, who have worked very carefully throughout the week to get the Frenchman back. Last Saturday Ancelotti confirmed at a press conference that he would be at La Ceramica: “He has been ruled out for Granada, but he will come to the next game.” But that prognosis has been complicated with the passing of days: on Tuesday he exercised inside the facilities and yesterday, despite stepping on the grass, he did it alone and touched the ball very gently. If something is clear in Valdebebas, it is that no risk is going to be taken before the Parque de los Principes, so at the slightest inconvenience the law of prudence has prevailed. But as Ancelotti has confirmed, his slow but steady recovery is on the right track and he will be able to play next Tuesday’s momentous match against PSG. Real Madrid needs a good attacking line against PSG. Karim Benzema will return and he will give back everything to the club.
