Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema will be staying at the Santiago Bernabeu rather than swap
places with Milan hitman
Alexandre Pato, says agent Karim Djaziri.
Reports around the peninsula claimed Real Madrid were set to
offer Benzema to Milan in return for the Brazilian, but such news has been
rejected by the agent.
"I have not read
any of these rumours. The only thing I can say is that Karim is very happy at
Real Madrid," the agent told Calciomercato.it.
Djaziri was also asked about reports
that pointed Benzema towards Manchester United. Again, his response suggested
the contrary.
"I have not heard anything
about this and I don't usually pay attention to market voices. I want to
underline that Benzema is happy where he is," he concluded.
