Real Madrid president Florentino battling to find Benzema buyer

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is hawking Karim Benzema around Europe.

Don Balon says Perez wants to find a buyer for the Frenchman, though is reluctant to make their plans public ahead of the Champions League final.

Perez is hoping to raise €60m from Benzema's sale with PSG, Inter Milan and AC Milan all interested.

However, no club is willing to go higher than €40m for a striker, who will turn 31 later this year.

Complicating matters further is Benzema, who has no plans to leave Madrid anytime soon.
