They reveal what Benzema has spent the huge salary he earned in Saudi Arabia on

Karim Benzema has made headlines again, this time not for a goal or a memorable play. The French forward has seen his personal expenses grab headlines in various media outlets. The reason has been the specific destination of part of the huge salary he's receiving in Saudi Arabia.

Since arriving at Al Ittihad, Benzema has earned staggering sums that place him among the highest-paid footballers. There had been much speculation about what he invested part of that daily fortune in. Now, it has been revealed what he did with just one day's salary, and the revelation has surprised many.

The player has purchased a luxury BMW valued at over $180,000, a cost he covered solely with one day's wages. With a daily salary of around £230,000, the transaction hasn't been a major financial effort for him. Even after the purchase, he still had over £90,000 left in his account.

This is Karim Benzema's exclusive automotive acquisition

This indulgence isn't just any vehicle, as it's a BMW M5, one of the most powerful and desired sedans on the automotive market. The car is equipped with a twin-turbo V8 engine that delivers an impressive 725 horsepower. In addition, it's capable of accelerating from 0 to 62 mph (100 km/h) in just a few seconds, reaching a top speed close to 190 mph (305 km/h).

Unlike the more exotic models he also owns, this BMW combines elegance with functionality. Its design makes it an ideal car for daily use, without giving up the power and luxury that are part of the footballer's lifestyle. That's why the choice has been interpreted as an indulgence, but also as a practical purchase.

Benzema and his passion for speed: a car collection that impresses

Benzema's fleet already includes unique pieces such as a Bugatti Chiron, a Lamborghini Revuelto, and a Rolls-Royce Spectre. The addition of this new BMW reinforces his image as an avowed lover of high-end cars. Each acquisition reflects both his fortune and his fascination with speed and design.

This way, Benzema continues to stand out not only on the field, but also in the luxury showcase. His signing by Saudi Arabia has secured him an astronomical salary that allows him to enjoy extravagances like this. While his sporting future still generates debate, what is clear is that his passion for cars keeps accelerating without brakes.
