Real Madrid forward Karim Benzema will reject the opportunity to move to the Chinese Super League this summer, according to a report.

Karim Benzema will reportedly reject the opportunity to move to the Chinese Super League in this summer's transfer window.

Real Madrid are believed to be in the market for a new centre-forward, with Bayern Munich's Robert Lewandowski strongly linked with a switch to the Bernabeu.

Benzema has only scored five La Liga goals during the 2017-18 campaign, and it has been suggested that Los Blancos will attempt to offload the Frenchman at the end of the season.

There is believed to be a host of interest from the super-rich Chinese Super League, but according to Don Balon, the 30-year-old is not prepared to entertain a move away from Europe at this stage of his career.

Benzema has netted nine times and provided 11 assists in 36 appearances in all competitions this term.
