Bayern Munich legend Bastian Schweinsteiger has hailed Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema as the best striker in the world.

“Currently the best center forward of the world – not only the goals he scores are impressive,” Schweinsteiger writes on Twitter.

“For me, it’s exceptional how intelligent he is moving off the ball. No doubt he will win the Ballon d‘Or 2022.”

Benzema scored 50 goals for club and country last season. However, he also assisted 15 goals for his Real Madrid teammates.
