Watch: Footballer Karim Benzema Performs Umrah Pilgrimage

Al Ittihad captain Karim Benzema has shared a video of himself early Monday while performing Umrah in Makkah, Saudi Arabia.

In the video, the former Real Madrid footballer was heard saying: "Mashallah, the best of the best. Alhamdulillah." He captioned the post in French, which translates to "very happy."

Benzema recorded the video while performing Tawaf, draping himself in an ihram (white clothing). 

However, this is not the first time Benzema performed Umrah, as he visited Saudi Arabia in 2016 and completed the pilgrimage.

In June, the official account of Al-Ittihad Saudi Club announced the signing of Benzema. It has been reported that the former France international's contract with the Saudi Club runs through 2026.
