Last updated : 22 June 2009 By Ed
Today's Times says that Benzema is not interested in leaving Lyon this year as he doesn't want to jeopardise hi chance of playing for France in South Africa next year.

His agent, Karim Djaziri, told the Times: "Karim is on holiday at the moment and he is not thinking of moving," he said. "He wants to stay in France for another year so that he can prepare for the World Cup and I think that Sir Alex knows this. Perhaps he wants to make an offer to Lyon. If that happens, then Karim will think about it, but as things stand, Karim wants to stay with Lyon for another year."
