There was a time when he wanted to make himself believe that their relationship was not good. They tried to avoid what would happen to them, the best player in the world and one of the most promising players, together in the white team
For this reason, the French player’s words in the Champions League put everything out of the way, trying to start a campaign that did not last even inside the locker room for 24 hours
They made things clear on the pitch, shared goals and assists, and sent each other gifts as if they were great friends. But they are more than that, because Karim does not stop worrying about the development of the Brazilian
Thus, Vinicius acknowledged the advice given to him by Benzema, some since his arrival in the Spanish capital, when they said that the relationship between them did not exist
This was in an interview with the official media of the European Football Association, in which he confirmed that “it is always important to have an impact in matches, and Karim always tells me to be brave since I arrived at the club. You have to pay until you score or pass to attend. If It wasn’t, keep the ball”
But he also wanted to point out the way they both have an understanding in green: “Our relationship was very good and we were able to win many games together”
Benzema is clearly the captain of the team, and his goals, passes and way of understanding football make him a vital player at Real Madrid, and one of the architects of the recent Champions League. (Hazard finds his best support)
But in addition to this, he also serves as the captain of the dressing room, this season he will wear the bracelet for the first time, since last season he was second behind Marcelo. And these Vinicius tips are the best proof of that
He cares about the younger ones, wants them to follow his expectations and above all get the best out of them. Something he achieves with the Brazilian, and he can still go further
