Karim Benzema’s agent, Karim Djaziri, has insisted that the player is not leaving Real Madrid this summer.
The French striker has been heavily linked with a move to Arsenal and it is understood that Arsene Wenger will wait until late in the window to launch a bid for the 27-year-old.
However, Djaziri says his client will not leave the Santiago Bernabeu this year.
“Karim is very happy at Real Madrid and he will be a Real Madrid player by the end of this transfer window, 1,000 per cent,” he is quoted as saying by Sky Sports.
“Karim is not looking to move anywhere this summer.”
The Gunners are prepared to spend up to £35 million (€50m) on Benzema, as they seek to reinforce their attack ahead of the new season. .
