Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane: 'Karim Benzema driven to do better'

Zidane: 'Benzema driven to do better'

Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane says that striker Karim Benzema remains "driven" to improve his form before the end of the season.

Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane has acknowledged that Karim Benzema has 'perhaps suffered a little' during the current campaign.

Benzema has scored just eight goals in all competitions this season, and the French international has managed to find the back of the net just once in his last eight outings.

However, Zidane has praised the attitude of the frontman, who he says continues to remain "driven" to improve his form during the closing weeks of the campaign.

At a press conference, the 45-year-old told reporters: "He is the same as always, perhaps he's suffering a little.

"He wants to do better and score more goals but he is training and is driven, focused like his teammates."

Benzema has been with Real since 2009, with 179 goals being scored in 361 appearances.
