Final year of Benzema's contract begins and renewing him is a priority

Technically, Benzema has just a year left on his Real Madrid contract. Now were at the beginning of July, the new season has begun and many of the contracts that were signed were until 30th June, like Dembele's at Barcelona, which has expired. Benzema's contract will be renewed until 2024.

This is what 'Marca' said a couple of weeks ago. Now, 'AS', on their front page this Sunday highlights how important it is for the striker to renew. He has become a key player for the club. A strict diet and disciplined training session at home have helped him become a serious candidate for the Ballon d'Or. He is also key to Real Madrid's success.
