MADRID — Ballon d'Or winner Karim Benzema said farewell to Real Madrid in a small, private ceremony closed to fans and media on Tuesday following a trophy-laden 14-year stay with the LaLiga club.
The French striker, 35, will leave as a free agent and is set to move to Saudi Arabian side Al Ittihad, signing a two-year deal estimated by media reports to be worth more than $106 million.
No sabemos si Julián Araujo se quedará o si lo enviarán a préstamo durante la temporada 2023-24. Sin embargo, pase lo que pase, el seleccionado mexicano podrá contarle a sus nietos que un día jugó un partido con la playera del FC Barcelona.
Sí, ¡al fin!
Feliz de vestir esta playera por primera vez. Ahora toca ir a por más!!

Lionel Messi, who last week played his last game for Paris St Germain, is open to making a return to LaLiga side Barcelona, the Argentine forward's father said on Monday.
Barça were forced to let their talisman leave in 2021 because his high wages coupled with strict LaLiga financial rules could have jeopardized the club's future.
Messi, who joined Barcelona's youth set-up aged 13 and went on to become the club's all-time top scorer and appearance maker with 672 goals in 778 games in all competitions, moved to PSG as a free agent on a two-year contract.
MADRID - Ballon d'Or winner Karim Benzema will leave Real Madrid as a free agent in the close season after 14 trophy-laden years, the LaLiga club said on Sunday, with the striker set to move to Saudi Arabian side Al Ittihad.
Saudi Arabia's state-run Al Ekhbariya television station reported that Al Ittihad had reached an agreement with Benzema on a two-year contract, with club officials in Madrid to hammer out a "record deal" with the striker.
The story to perhaps one of the most lackluster and disappointing transfers of all time has come to an end.
On Saturday, June 3, Real Madrid announced that the club and Eden Hazard had come to an agreement to terminate his contract with immediate effect. Hazard will become a free agent as of June 30, 2023.
Comunicado Oficial: Hazard. #RealMadrid
After losing last year’s UEFA Women’s Champions League final to Lyon, Barcelona redeemed themselves with a thrilling 3-2 comeback victory vs. Wolfsburg on Saturday to claim their second-ever UWCL crown.
The Barcelona players must of thought they were having déjá vu of last year’s final when they once again conceded early goals. Last time against Lyon the Catalan club got scored on in the sixth and 23rd minute.
On Saturday Wolfsburg scored in the third and 37th minute.
Many people see Diego Simeone as a villain: Dressed in black, with a resting tough guy face and always displaying tactics ready to ruin a night of "good football."
El Cholo, however, can be fun, playful and a little bit naughty.
Proof of this statement is his latest interview with the Spanish radio show "El Partidazo de COPE," where he spoke about different topics, including sex. Specifically about how much sex he is having and how much sex his players need to have to be part of his team.
Of course, all in a joking tone.
Julián Araujo se está ganando a la plantilla de FC Barcelona y también a sus aficionados. Todo sin siquiera haber disputado un minuto en cancha.
¿Cómo es eso? Gran parte del cariño hacia el joven mexicano se expresa en modo meme.
Araujo llegó al Barcelona durante el mercado de pases de invierno, sin embargo un error administrativo del LA Galaxy hizo que su registro llegara 18 segundos fuera de plazo, lo que le ha impedido defender la playera culé.
José Mourinho couldn’t keep his perfect record in European finals intact on Wednesday as his Roma side fell to Sevilla 1-1 (4-1 on penalties) in the Europa League final.
Mourinho has now won five of the six European finals he’s managed in.
Roma opened the scoring in the 34th minute through Paulo Dybala. The Argentine was a surprise start after missing the last seven weeks with injuries, most recently an ankle issue.
César Montes lo dio todo. Cada gramo de sudor y hasta un par de cabezazos que parecían heroicos. Sin embargo, entre el VAR y un gol a los 90+3' del Valencia, el Cachorro no pudo evitar el dramático descenso del Espanyol.
Los periquitos igualaron 2-2 con el equipo che y a una jornada pendiente, las matemáticas simplemente no alcanzan para la salvación. C'est fini.
Ante Valencia, Montes dio esperanzas.
