Karim Benzema continues to keep a close eye on Real Madrid's season. The Frenchman, a club legend, is keeping an eye on everything that happens and seems to have found the solution to make Mbappé shine. On Florentino Pérez's table, Benzema has put the name of a player who is breaking through in Saudi Arabia and who would be very useful for Ancelotti: Gabri Veiga .
Gabri Veiga left Celta in 2023 for 30 million euros and it seems that he now wants to return to Spain. At just 22 years old, he is still a footballer with a lot of potential ahead of him and his name is now on Real Madrid's agenda . He is a midfielder who can occupy all positions in the center of the field, although where he stands out most is in the defensive pivot position.
This is precisely where Real Madrid have many problems, lacking creativity and balance in the midfield since Kroos left. Gabri Veiga would respond to all the problems that the club headed by Florentino Pérez has and would do so at a very cheap price. He is valued at around 25 million euros and is willing to receive a much lower salary than the one he receives in Saudi Arabia.
In this sense, Gabri Veiga has a contract with Al-Ahli until June 30, 2026 , although he could leave earlier if an economic agreement is reached between all parties. Florentino has welcomed the offer from Karim Benzema , who believes that the Galician could be the solution to many of the problems that Ancelotti's team presents.
Gabri Veiga, the Solution That Benzema Offers for Real Madrid
Veiga is a key player for Al-Ahli, sixth in the Saudi Pro League. This season he has played 19 games in all competitions, scoring 4 goals and providing 1 assist. These numbers are considered very positive for a professional who plays in the midfield position.
After his time in Saudi Arabia, Gabri Veiga is clear that he wants to return to Europe . The option of Real Madrid is very attractive to him. Before deciding to go to Al-Ahli, Florentino Pérez had already tried to sign him from Celta, but there was no luck.
Now, Karim Benzema has offered this solution and Florentino is thinking about it . Gabri Veiga would be delighted and would do everything in his power to wear the Real Madrid jersey.
