Karim Benzema is among the best strikers in the world. The Frenchman has enjoyed a decent career both in domestic and international terms. Besides this, the attacker has also won numerous accolades personally.
The striker may have declined between a few stints in the past, but he managed to pick himself up, thus enduring a historic rise. After leading his side to glory, he even won the prestigious Ballon d’Or and the UEFA Best award.

He has become a leader for his domestic side and continues scoring for them. However, it’s something the player hasn’t endured with his national team. The player has been absent from his international duties since 2014, after numerous allegations against him.
Nevertheless, he received a call-up for his country in 2021. Moreover, he even managed to lift a trophy on his return. French fans expected the same attitude from him in the 2022 World Cup. But luck wasn’t in his favor, as the player didn’t play in the World Cup after sustaining an injury.
However, interesting information was revealed by his agent a few weeks ago that the player was available for the latter games of the World Cup but was actually sent home by the French boss, Didier Deschamps. Nevertheless, Benzema refuted those suggestions and hit back at his manager on social media.
Karim Benzema lashes out at Deschamps as fans react
And now the tale has grown even more after Benzema encountered his gaffer’s latest remarks. Recently, France coach Didier Deschamps revealed that it was Benzema’s decision to not play in the World Cup, to which the Madrid man has responded in quite a blunt manner.
He posted a picture of himself on his Instagram story with the coach and wrote all the captions. The striker also wrote, “The audacity of this (clown)! Holy Didier. Goodnight.” Benzema claimed that the news of it being his choice was false and that it wasn’t his decision. However, his remarks have created havoc among soccer fans, who are wonder-struck by his cold and blunt response.
He needs to shut his fucking mouth sometimes. His legacy is gonna be ruined because he acts like such a child yk. https://t.co/dbxov4TnAu
