Bale and Zidane’s ongoing war of words took another turn when the Real Madrid boss said that it was the Welshman who refused to play against Bayern Munich.
Previously Zidane told the press about Bale’s absence in the Friendly
“Bale has been left out because Madrid are trying to get out.”
“If you can go tomorrow, better. We hope he leaves soon. It would be best for everyone. We are working on his transfer to a new team.
Jonathan Barnett- Bale’s agent hit out at Zidane
“Zidane is a disgrace and very ungrateful, he is not showing respect for a player who did so much for Real Madrid,”
Barnett told AFP.
“We’re working on his departure,”
he added.
Zidane spoke to the Media ahead of their next friendly against Arsenal.
And unsurprisingly most of the questions asked were about Bale.
Zizou first clarified that he doesn’t have a beef with Bale
“I have not disrespected anyone and much less a player (Bale). The club is dealing with his departure. Period.
Welsh express himself who refused to play vs Bayern Munich
“The other day Gareth didn’t play because he didn’t want to. He said the club was trying to negotiate his departure he and didn’t want to play because of that.”
“So far, Bale hasn’t asked not to play tomorrow. Bale’s situation is known by everyone and will not change. The club is going to do what they have to do with him.
“I have to respect the players. Bale is with us and will do the same as the others.”
So one way or another Gareth Bale’s time is coming to an end at Madrid.
There are several reports suggesting that a Chinese club is interested in him. Ready to pay him close to a million per week.
But we will have to wait and see where the Welshman ends up at.
