It is well known in the football world that Arsene Wenger would love to sign Karim Benzema. Wenger actually came out and stated that £30million was the correct price for the French centre forward when he moved from Lyon to Real Madrid. These are not words that you usually hear from the Gunners boss.
Karim Benzema was a player born to play in the Premier League, he is big, strong, quick, brave and is technically very gifted. He would also settle very quickly at Arsenal as his best friend in football happens to be Arsenals very own Samir Nasri. Arsenal has always been the right club for Benzema and i found it very stange when he signed for Los Blancos.
In my opinon Benzema could regain his Lyon form in North London under the tuteledge of Arsenals French boss but will he really go for him?
I think he will because Karim Benzema genuinely excites Wenger. Would it be £20million worth sending? Yes it would………..

So much has been said about Benzema, would he make a tremendous difference to the current squad?
Would it be a wiser move to have Lukaku and the JET?
If we fans were to believe every thing we read, Arsene, would be making a move for enough foot soldiers for six teams this season.
in our deams gooners!
30 Mill???? You’ve got to be kidding me? Surely that is not his market price? Doesn’t form count for anything? Even 20 mill is too much. I’d rather focus on the upcoming promising youngsters from the Arsenal Youth Academy
AW should realy think seriously on signing the young impesive striker. Arsenal has a very good chance of wining EPL this year. The facy that VP is consintanly on injury list is enough reason to sign Karim Benzema. Please AW sign this guy…..we funs we want to keep on celebrating this year. I love Arsenal FC.
i dont think arsenal should sign him because we have a good squad at the moment and we dont really need another striker
i dont think that will be a wiser move.coz Karrim is not the player he used to be when he was at Lyon.of lately he has gotten himself entangled in off field issues which i think has affected his form greately.For instance;Terry,Ribbery,Rooney,etc.we are lucky our MG teaches our boys gudmaners.
Coming to think about about it, Real Madrid should pay Arsenal 30M to take him. After all he has benched for an entire season.
Coming to Arsenal for Benzema would be like a player seeking to rebuild his career. What many “so-called” gifted players have not yet learnt. Going to Barcelona and Real Madrid is going to a place where talent is destroyed unless you are exceptional. More often than not you only play the bench. The only thing that is guaranteed is lovely sunshine.
this isnt even a story, its just some rubbish rambling of someone who spends to much time playing championship manager!! Get a life!
I share WengersGuideDog’s opinion on this matter
I hope so
A very good move by Arsene who could sell off Arshavin to recoup most if not all of the fee for Benzema ?
Sell arshavin and sign podolski or gourcuff or marin…..
going 4 benzema 4 dat price is just 2 much. At d moment he is nt too clinical in front of goal than theo walcott. If he can come on loan may be a good option or 4 a reduced fee of 10 million pounds
