Despite contrasting rumours earlier this afternoon, Karim Benzema doesn't seem to be a particularly hot topic at Bayer Leverkusen.
When asked by BILD, club sporting director Simon Rolfes shut down the rumour, simply stating “our squad is complete.”
This story emerged on Monday when DZfoot journalist Ilyes Kaddouri reported that there was contact between the two parties.
Benzema following Leverkusen's instagram page only added further fuel to the fire regarding a move to the Rhineland.
However, with Carles Martinez's squad well stocked in his position, it now looks like it was nothing more than an unreliable rumour.
