US EditionKante Joins Fenerbahce After Transfer Dispute
- On Monday, Karim Benzema completed a move from Al-Ittihad to Al-Hilal in the final hours before the transfer window closed, marking a headline transfer in the championship.
- After renewal talks stalled, disagreements in recent weeks over a contract renewal at Al-Ittihad and Benzema's agent demanding a one-and-a-half-year deal complicated negotiations with Al-Hilal.
- This season, Benzema has scored eight goals in 14 league games for Al-Ittihad, missing the last two matches amid a contract dispute, with 54 goals and 17 assists in 83 appearances overall.
- The move immediately boosts Al-Hilal's title prospects as league leaders one point ahead of Al-Nassr, while Cristiano Ronaldo sat out Monday's match amid reported protests.
- With PIF owning the clubs, Benzema could face Al-Ittihad on February 19 or Cristiano Ronaldo in the Riyadh derby, fueling league tensions.
