'My return will be strong' - Karim Benzema sends message to fans as Real Madrid confirm injury

Real Madrid star striker Karim Benzema has delivered a brief update on the injury he picked up on Tuesday night against Celtic.

The Frenchman published an Instagram post, promising the fans (or probably himself) to comeback stronger.

“I can’t complain, my return will be strong. Thank you all for your messages,” wrote Benzema.

The Frenchman will have to miss Madrid’s next few games while the club will make sure that he has enough time to recover properly from his muscle injury.

Benzema is a crucial player for Carlo Ancelotti and the Italian boss won't risk by rushing him back, so Madrid fans should expect Eden Hazard or Rodrygo replacing the Frenchman in the lineup for the next fixtures.
