Esquire April 2022 Cover: Real Madrid’s Karim Benzema goes up a gear
Karim Benzema spoke to Esquire Middle East for the April cover story about his career, World Cup 2022, and more.
“It took 18 minutes in the biggest game of the season for Karim Benzema to remind everyone why both himself and his team, Real Madrid, are still the real deal. Trailing Paris Saint-Germain by two goals, Benzema—with the the captain’s armband strapped to his left bicep—took the game (and Real Madrid’s season) by the scruff of the neck, hitting a rapid fire, second half hat-trick to send his team through to the next stage of this season’s UEFA Champions League,” writes Esquire’s Matthew Baxter-Priest.
