00:00 Here is one of our greatest legends, Karim Benzema.
00:06 Hello everyone. It's difficult to speak with so many emotions,
00:14 but I wanted to say thank you to Real Madrid,
00:18 thank you to my teammates.
00:21 It was a good path in my life.
00:25 I was lucky to realize my childhood dream thanks to Preci,
00:32 who has been with me for a long time.
00:34 As I said before, I was only 21 years old.
00:39 I went to my house with my parents and when I saw you,
00:45 I said, "He is the man who brought Zizou, Ronaldo,
00:50 and now he wants me in his team."
00:53 Thank you very much for that.
00:55 I will never forget Real Madrid,
00:59 because it is impossible,
01:01 because it is the best club in the world, in history.
01:05 There is no other.
01:06 But I think that today is the time to leave
01:11 and see another story.
01:14 But the most important thing for me is that I have done what I have won here,
01:20 in Madrid.
01:21 As I said before, like a child.
01:24 And that is the most important thing.
01:27 And as I said on the first day I was here,
01:30 one, two, three, "Ala Madrid!"
01:34 I will say it again, one, two, three, "Ala Madrid!"
01:38 I also wanted to say thank you to the coach,
01:49 who has always given me a lot of confidence,
01:52 from the beginning.
01:54 And I will never forget that,
01:57 because he is a top coach
02:00 and I have learned a lot from you.
02:03 So thank you very much for everything.
02:05 I don't have many words for you,
02:10 because it is a little sad day,
02:12 because I am leaving this club.
02:16 And for me it hurts,
02:18 because, as I said before,
02:21 I had a dream in my head,
02:23 to sign for Madrid and I wanted to finish in Madrid.
02:25 But sometimes in life there is another opportunity.
02:29 And I have done it with my whole family,
02:31 but Madrid will always be like my family
02:34 and I will always admire the matches in Madrid.
02:38 And thanks also to the fans,
02:40 who push me to play very good matches,
02:45 to have strength, mentality
02:48 and to be today as I am.
02:51 So, thank you all, really.
02:55 (Applause)
02:58 And now, the gold and shining badge of Real Madrid.
