The Frenchman is steadily reviving his career with his displays in front of goal this term
French superstar Karim Benzema was one of the undisputed strikers in the La Liga during his early days as a Real Madrid player but he has attracted a lot of criticism after failing to maintain his incredible level of performance during the past few years.

But knowing quite well that he needs to take up the goalscoring responsibility following Cristiano Ronaldo's departure from the Santiago Bernabeu this summer, the Frenchman has come back to life in front of goal this term - scoring consistently to revive his falling career - albeit in a not-so-well campaign for the Los Blancos so far.
Karim Benzema is currently one of the elite scorers in the La Liga at the moment with 5 goals and 3 assists to his name in 15 appearances. He has also found the back of the net a decent 3 times to fire Real Madrid into the knockout phase of the UEFA Champions League this season.
