Real Madrid's skipper and 2022 Ballon d'Or winner Karim Benzema has been one of the most successful football players in recent years, be it on or off the pitch.
French-born professional footballer Karim Benzema now plays as a striker for Real Madrid in La Liga and captains both Real Madrid and the France side. Benzema is a gifted and effective striker who is regularly included among the greatest strikers of all time, and he is enjoying the best seasons in his career. For Real Madrid, he ranks second all-time in both goals scored and assists provided. Benzema has won 23 trophies with Real Madrid, including five UEFA Champions League titles, two Copa del Reys, and four La Liga titles. And most recently, he bagged home the Ballon d'Or prize - one of the two players, alongside his teammate Luka Modric, to break Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo's dominance in men's football.
And of course, behind every successful man, there is a woman.
Who is Karim Benzema's girlfriend?
According to Marca, the French international and 2022 Ballon d'Or winner is in a romantic relationship with stunning American model Jordan Ozuna.
Before transitioning to a full-time modeling career, Ozuna, 32, worked as a server at the iconic American restaurant chain Hooters in Las Vegas. She is now sponsored by many modeling agencies in the US. The enviably trim and stunning American model has endorsed The Salt Agency, State Management, Caroline Gleason Management, and Tricia Brink Management.
Although Benzema has always kept his personal affairs out of the prying eyes of the media, he now seems to be more forthcoming regarding his relationship status. He revealed that the duo was truly close by sharing an Instagram story of them cuddling. Later, a snapshot of the handsome couple's video conversation with one another showed that they appeared to be having a great time.
The gifted athlete follows Ozuna, who has 386.000 Instagram followers. On Instagram, they often interact with one another, commenting sometimes and like each other's images.
And the lovely pair has just begun revealing a few private details about their developing romance.
Ozuna often attended Benzema's games
When Benzema was guiding Los Blancos to a 1-0 victory over Liverpool in the Champions League final at the Stade de France in late May, it was the first indication.
It was assumed that Ozuna was in Paris at the same time to assist her footballing super star boyfriend.
When Onzuna uploaded pictures of the couple cuddling on Instagram at the beginning of August, the hypothesis gained further support. Then, a second picture of them from a portion of a video chat surfaced, showing them plainly laughing together.
They both follow one other on Instagram, and they have exchanged heart emoticons in public while interacting.
When France seeks to defend its global championship in Qatar this winter, Benzema, the Ballon d'Or winner, will be the French team's front-runner. And it is likely that the Real Madrid talisman will be accompanied by his beautiful girlfriend, who was also there when Benzema received the Ballon d'Or on Monday night at the Theatre Du Chatelet in Paris.
