Benzema’s sensational form has been a driving force in Madrid’s title tilt, with the Frenchman having scored 19 goals in 35 La Liga appearances this season.
Madrid can win the Spanish top flight for the first time in three seasons should they defeat Villarreal on Thursday, or if Barcelona drop points against Osasuna.
There have been suggestions that Benzema should be in the running for this year’s coveted Ballon d’Or award and Zidane has claimed every Madrid player could be worthy of the prize.
“In football, everyone can have a say. For me, my players are the best,” the Madrid boss told a press conference.
“Karim is not only this year, he has done very well for many years. The Ballon d’Or is won by only one, and everyone can comment, but for me all my players deserve it.”
Los Blancos need only two points from their final two matches of the season to claim their 34th domestic crown.
Zidane believes Real Madrid’s hunger to return from lockdown at their best is what has given them an advantage in the title race.
