Dubai: Karim Benzema has made a significant move away from football by purchasing multiple luxury residences in the UAE's thriving real estate market. The French football star has acquired properties at Mercedes-Benz Places and Vision Iconic. Binghatti, the real estate company's head of sales, confirmed Benzema's acquisitions during the Vision Iconic launch at Coca-Cola Arena on Wednesday.
Benzema's purchases came alongside those of other football stars, including Brazilian Neymar and former Spain and Germany players Aymeric Laporte and Karim Bellarabi. These high-profile investors have bolstered Binghatti's reputation as an appealing destination for international buyers. For Benzema, this property investment comes at a time when his football career's future is uncertain.
The 38-year-old recently exited his contract with Saudi Pro League club Al Hilal, leaving questions about whether he will continue playing or explore new ventures outside the pitch. Benzema's latest Sheikh Zayed Road property further solidifies his growing ties to the UAE, where the former Ballon d'Or winner now owns several luxury residences.
