As the world continues to be captivated by the exploits of French football legend Zinedine Zidane and his son, Karim, in the Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr, the attention has now shifted to another young talent from the same country. The 17-year-old midfielder, who goes by the name of Karim Benzema, is set to make his debut for the club this weekend.
Benzema was born on January 22, 2005, and is the son of former France international player Karim Benzema. He started playing football at a very young age and quickly showed his talent, earning himself a place in the youth academy of Al-Nassr. He made his senior debut for the club in February last year and has since impressed with his performances.
According to reports, Benzema is rated highly by the club's coaching staff and management team, and they believe that he has all the potential to become a star in the future. They have even gone so far as to compare him to fellow Algerian international Ahmed Amiri, who is also currently playing for Al-Nassr.
The club has invested heavily in developing their young players, and Benzema is no exception. He has already been given opportunities to play in important matches against some of the top teams in Saudi Arabia and has performed well, scoring goals and creating assists.
It will be interesting to see how Benzema performs for Al-Nassr this season and whether or not he can establish himself as a key player for the club. With his father being one of the most successful footballers in history, it seems like there is great potential for Benzema to achieve greatness in the sport.
