Karim Benzema has become the target of harsh criticism from Real Madrid fans due to his low goal-scoring production. That is why Zinedine Zidane has come out to support him once again.

Zinedine Zidane, Real Madrid coach, did not hide that French striker Karim Benzema "has a blockage" with goal, but he is convinced that "soon" he will solve it and contribute goals to his team.


"We all know the quality of Karim Benzema and everything he can contribute to the team's fluidity, there is no problem or concern about that. We know his qualities. Regarding goals, he has to score them and he knows it. Even if he knows how to do something else like associating and combining with others, he has to score," said Zinedine Zidane when asked about Real Madrid's '9' current goal drought.


"I said that he suffers and is not happy when he misses his chances but the solution is simple, keep working. He has a blockage. The team had a general one at the beginning of the season, but we continue working and it is the same individually for all the players. He has to work to contribute more and score. I'm sure he will do it soon," he added.


Zinedine Zidane said that he does not believe that Karim Benzema's continuity at Real Madrid next season, nor that of Welshman Gareth Bale, is in danger. He defended the work of both players in training and valued the moment of other teammates who have taken away their undisputed starter status.


"We are all in the same team, we need everyone and I don't see them sad. They are training well, of course they would like to score more goals but apart from that they are all working well. As always happens in a team, there are moments of form for other players and that's what we are experiencing. There are very good players in this club and I have to always value that," he concluded.
