KARIM BENZEMA ENTERED IN HISTORY
Benzema left Madrid as third-best one-club scorer of XXI Century
Karim Benzema has finished his glorious career in Real Madrid that lasted 14 seasons.
New signing of Al Ittihad has amassed 354 goals for Los Blancos in all competitions to become 2nd more prolific scorer in the club history.
Also, he takes the third place in the ranking of world football scorer who scored most goals for the same club in XXI Century.
He concedes only to Leo Messi (672 for Barcelona) and his former team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo (450 for Real Madrid). Thus, all three best achievements in this category were made in Spain.
At the moment, 10 players have scored 250+ goals for a single club. 8 of them are active but now only 3 continue to play for the club where they were most successful (Al-Mutawa, Kane and Gormley).
