Al-Ittihad has talented squad players including former Chelsea midfielder N’Golo Kante, ex-Celtic winger Jota, and former Liverpool player Fabinho. But despite their star-studded squad, Nuno has only been able to win just two games from their last nine games across all competitions.

And after an embarrassing defeat to Al-Quwa Al-Juwiya, tempers flared in the changing room and Benzema and Nuno reportedly exchanged insults, according to Revelo.

Reports suggest the club may look to bring in a French manager to please Benzema.

From the list of suggestions, Laurent Blanc, who used to manage Lyon is rumoured to be a replacement.
