'Let him play for another country' - Benzema's former agent hits out after admission that France career is 'finished'

The former agent of Karim Benzema believes France should let the striker represent another national team after the admission that his Les Bleus career had come to an end.

Benzema has been frozen out of the international set-up ever since a blackmail scandal that implicated him and fellow France player Mathias Valbuena broke in 2015.

The Real Madrid played no part in either Euro 2016 nor the qualifying campaign for this year's World Cup, and watched from the sidelines as Didier Deschamps' men lifted the trophy in Russia.

Now FFF president Noel Le Graet has gone public to say it is unlikely he will ever play for France again.
