The Frenchman Karim Benzema stirred the atmosphere before the match between Al-Hilal and Al-Ittihad in the 23rd round of the Saudi Pro League, after making a notable gesture in recent hours.

Benzema posted a video showing him undergoing intense individual training in preparation for the much-anticipated match against his former team, a game that is widely awaited by fans.

This move comes as part of the French striker's efforts to reach the highest levels of physical and technical readiness before the match, especially given the particular nature of the encounter.

Benzema joined Al-Hilal from Al-Ittihad in a free transfer deal, following an agreement between both parties on all financial and contractual details to strengthen the front line during the current season.

Since his first appearance in an Al-Hilal jersey, the player has participated in two league matches, successfully scoring three goals and assisting one, most notably in the match against Al-Okhdood.

All eyes are on the anticipated summit to see if Benzema will continue his brilliance and leave his mark once again in one of the strongest matches of the season.
