The former Galacticos striker has been in talks with the Rhineland club. However, for the moment, it is doubtful that Benzema will arrive in Germany's first division anytime soon.

DZfoot journalist Ilyes Kaddouri reports that there has been some direct contact between Bayer Leverkusen and Karim Benzema.

The superstar even inquired about the club with his former teammates Lucas Vázquez and Moussa Diaby and is now said to be interested.

On Instagram, Benzema only follows his former clubs Lyon, Real Madrid and Al Hilal on Instagram – but now Leverkusen as well.

Of course, this doesn't necessarily mean that the former Real Madrid marksman is on his way to the Rhineland outfit immediately.

Despite ending his relationship with Al Hilal prematurely, he's still under contract at the Saudi Pro League club until 2030.

Furthermore, Leverkusen is very well-positioned in the center forward position with Patrik Schick and Christian Kofane as options up top.

Additionally, whether a deal is financially feasible for the Bundesliga club is a big question given the Frenchman's wages.
