Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema has admitted he is
“disappointed” to constantly find his name among the substitutes,
but assured fans that he is happy in Madrid and sees the experience
as a learning curve.
The 22-year-old Frenchman has recently found himself playing second
fiddle to Argentine forward Gonzalo Higuain.
“Yes, you can say I'm disappointed because I am. But it is
something that is part of the job. Things are well, I'm at a great
club and learning," he told L'Equipe.
The €35 million forward, who came on to replace Brazilian star Kaka
with just over 20 minutes to go against Mallorca at the Bernabeu
last night, said he was not going to let his time out of the team
become “an issue".
The former Lyon man went on to say that his job now was to
“convince the coaching staff and earn their trust,” adding, “I will
give everything to get myself a place [in the team].”
