If some think that football stars do not know what is said about them in the media, they are seriously mistaken. Since last Monday, October 17, there are only for Karim Benzema, the Real Madrid striker, author of a simply exceptional season with his club. It is therefore very logical that he was elected Ballon d’Or at the Châtelet theater in Paris, in front of a large number of his relatives, as well as his new companion, Jordan Ozuna. The sublime young woman took the opportunity to congratulate him after the ceremony and everything seems to be going well for the 34-year-old player, who seems to be improving over the years.
If on the field Karim Benzema is very often an exemplary player, you should not look for him too much outside… During his speech of thanks when receiving the prestigious trophy, the native of Lyon slipped a small tackle for his coach Didier Deschamps and he is not the only one to have been entitled to this treatment, since the star of the Blues has just done it again by attacking this time Jerome Rothen. The former Paris Saint-Germain player has converted to the media and for two seasons, he has hosted Rothen ignites on the airwaves of RMC.
Benzema doesn’t appreciate Rothen’s words on his importance with the Blues
Not known to have his tongue in his pocket, the host had words that obviously did not please Karim Benzema at all. “In the French team, we have more certainties in the stars with Mbappé than Benzema. He scores more and is more decisive than any striker. It is essential“said Jérôme Rothen on his show. The replica of the one nicknamed KB9 was not long in coming and a few minutes ago he published a photo of the 44-year-old former footballer during his signing for obscure Turkish club MKE Ankaragücü. “You talk way too much…stay focused“replies the sportsman, before putting on a second layer by putting a photo of him with his Ballon d’Or and the mention: “Concentrate…” (the images can be found in the slideshow).
A small tackle which should certainly make Jérôme Rothen react and the quarrel may have only just begun…
