Real Madrid only have eyes for Kylian Mbappé, but they don't forget how lucky they are to have Karim Benzema in their ranks.

And to thank him for his excellent performance, the Merengue club extended the French striker's contract until 2023.

At 33, the center-forward is coming out of the most successful season of his career: he was named best player in the Spanish league, finished second in Liga behind Lionel Messi (with 23 goals against 30 for the Argentinian) and signed his return to the French team at the Euro.

With a little less success, of course.

But 2021 will remain a good year for KB9.
