Primera - Benzema set for Real stay

Karim Benzema insists he is happy at Real Madrid despite missing out on France's World Cup squad due to his unconvincing form.

Benzema joined Real Madrid in a £30 million move from Lyon last summer but has scored just eight goals in 26 appearances in La Liga this season.

His failure to impose himself as a regular starter at the Bernabeu has cost him his World Cup place, with Raymond Domenech instead naming Nicolas Anelka, Jimmy Briand, Djibril Cisse, Andre-Pierre Gignac, Sidney Govou and Thierry Henry as the strikers in his 30-man preliminary squad.

But Benzema is content to remain at Real, despite suggestions that Manchester United could be interested in a player who has attracted Sir Alex Ferguson in the past.
