THE BALE-MADRID UNION SHOULD END ALREADY

Reports on Friday claim Gareth Bale’s agent wants his rep out of Real Madrid as relations have not improved. The fans keep booing the player since his return from international duty with Wales. The fan flag incident did not go down well with the fans. Bale has also not recently had the opportunity to shut the comments down with excellent performances on the pitch.

Jonathan Barnett says while his rep has not officially asked to leave the club, Bale is not “ecstatic.” Barnett claimed Bale was only fulfilling his contractual obligations as long as he remains in Madrid’s employ. He confirmed that Bale is working with the team to ensure the La Liga comes to Madrid at the end of the season, aside European success.

Despite the fan incident, Barnett says the Welshman remains professional; with stats confirming when he plays Madrid have a higher chance of winning. However, if a good opportunity comes and Bale agrees, then the next thing would be a chat with Florentino Perez, he added.

The 30-year old might have to end the union with Madrid this summer after plans for last summer failed. So far he has netted twice in all competitions this season. If the move to Asia is allowed, Bale gets an impressive retirement package and all of the issues end. Zinedine Zidane, who has tried and failed with his diplomatic moves, could face his project and his aim of landing KylianMbappe.

With the ways things stand, Madrid are still in contention for the league title but their arch rivals are favourites to retain it. In Europe, it is ever an open race for who has the biggest heart.
