Al Hilal signed French star Karim Benzema to bolster the “Zaïm’s” attacking firepower. However, the forward is now facing a major challenge that could significantly shape his future with the club.
The French striker is suffering from an adductor injury, which has forced him to miss the last two matches (against Al Taawoun and Al Shabab), raising serious concern among supporters and the coaching staff alike.
The experienced forward (38) is now in a race against time to return as quickly as possible.
Saudi club Al Hilal issued an official medical statement providing the latest developments ahead of the decisive match scheduled for next Friday, which will open Matchday 25 of the Saudi Pro League (Dawri Roshn).
According to the statement, Benzema and Hassan Tambakti are continuing an advanced phase of rehabilitation: they completed fitness work with the ball and trained together in the gym, in preparation for a return to full team training in the near future.
