“My first season, the first six months at Real, was very difficult. I didn’t speak Spanish, everything was extremely complicated.

He also remembered the moments when Jose Mourinho was on the bench of the Galacticos.

“I had problems with Mourinho. We met at the hotel the day before the match with Mallorca. We talked and he told me he wasn’t going to put me in the lineup. We had an argument and I told him: “Put me in the first team tomorrow, I will score a goal and we will win. The match ended with the result 1:0, and I scored a goal “, concluded Benzema.
