Fresh reports claim that Karim Benzema will snub the opportunity of going to Qatar to take in France’s World Cup final vs Argentina.
The reigning world champions booked a place in their second successive final by beating surprise package Morocco 2-0 in the last four. That victory set up a blockbuster finale in Qatar where they will face Lionel Messi and Argentina.
Les Bleus have reached another final despite Didier Deschamps being without a number of key starters. The likes of Paul Pogba, Presnel Kimpembe, Christopher Nkunku and N’Golo Kante were ruled out entirely, whilst Benzema picked up a thigh injury on the eve of the tournament.
