[QUOTE="Labyrinth, post: 132, member: 1"] Karim Benzema has admitted that he is currently enjoying life at Real Madrid so much that he would have no problem finishing his career at the Santiago Bernabeu. The France international took time to settle in the Spanish capital but he nailed down a regular berth in the Blancos frontline this season and played a key role in the club's Liga triumph. Benzema is just 24 but he confessed that he is open to the idea of spending the rest of his playing days in Madrid. "Why not finish my career here? I don't know if I can play for as many years as Raul, though! We'll see," he told [I]RMC[/I]. "Everything is going super well for me now.
