Agent refutes Benzema to Inter
Friday 16 January, 2009

The agent of Lyon striker Karim Benzema has denied that Inter have made contact.

There were reports yesterday morning that the Nerazzurri were looking to the French talent as a way to take the pressure off Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Although Lyon chief Jean-Michel Aulas values Benzema at nearly £100m, the Italian champions were said to be tracking the marksman, who has 15 goals in Ligue 1 this term.

“I haven't spoken to any club,” agent Karim Djaziri insisted in The Times.

“There has been no contact from Inter, Barcelona or Manchester United. You would have to ask Aulas about the offers he has received.

“Karim has always said that he wants to go to a prestigious club that will allow him to win trophies and as long as that is the case he could choose England, Italy or Spain.”
