Although not directly implicated in the claims, the Real Madrid striker is furious those close to him stand accused
Karim Benzema has sent a furious tweet aimed at the French media, instructing them to “give him a break” following allegations from website Mediapart that relatives of his were involved in kidnapping former representative Leo D’Souza.
Benzema himself was not implicated, but a report was published on Thursday that alleged the Real Madrid star’s family were involved in a plot that saw the agent taken against his will and placed in isolation on Sunday, October 7.
