For years, Benzema has been playing all matches with a white bandage around his right hand, a secret that revealed a great sacrifice for the French star.
The story goes back to January 2019, 3 and a half years ago, when Benzema suffered a fracture in his little finger, during the Real Madrid match against Real Betis in the Spanish League.
The injury came after a joint ball between him and Betis defender Marc Bartra, which led to Benzema’s finger breaking, and he left the meeting.
Despite the success of the surgery, the player quickly rehabilitated him to be available at the start of next season in 2019-20.
On his return, his hand received another blow, which exacerbated the situation, and Benzema has since worn a bandage due to his inability to devote enough time after the operation to recover.
With his remarkable brilliance since he wore the bandage, Benzema does not seem in a hurry to have an operation on his hand, which could solve the problem completely.
There is a theory that says that Benzema does not want the operation now, because he is optimistic about the bandage that he became one of the best players in the world after wearing, which might push him to perform the necessary operation, after retiring from playing football.
