Benzema content in Madrid

Karim Benzema says he is enjoying life at Real Madrid so much that he would have no problem finishing his career at the Bernabeu.

The France international took time to settle in the Spanish capital but has nailed down a regular berth in Real s frontline this season and played a key role in the club s Liga triumph.

Everything is going super well for me now. We have won the league and we re all really proud of this team, Benzema said.

It is true that at first it was a bit tricky for me because it was the first time that I had been separated from my family.

But with patience and hard work everything got better. I had always intended to play for this team and today I am very happy.

Benzema also explained that France legend and current Real sporting director Zinedine Zidane and coach Jose Mourinho both played a key role as he finally settled at the club.

Zidane s help was important for me, he said. He is the best player of all time in France and he spoke with me.

And Mou (Mourinho) always told me what he wanted from me. We talked a lot and he trusted in me.

Benzema, who joined Real from Lyon in 2009, bagged 21 goals in 34 Liga appearances this term.
