Bale set for Madrid talks
A meeting between Gareth Bale’ s representatives and Real Madrid chiefs which
could decide his long term future is to take place soon , sources have told ESPN FC .
Wales international Bale used a post - match interview after his match- winning
display in the 2018 Champions League final victory over Liverpool to reveal he
was considering his future .
The 28 - year - old ’s unhappiness at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium came as he lost
his starting place for the biggest games under then - Madrid coach ZinedineZidane .
Zidane ’ s abrupt resignation and replacement with ex - Spain national team manager
JulenLopetegui could lead to a re - evaluation of the situation , and a course close to Bale said the comments made after the final may or may not be reconsidered depending on the results of a meeting . Lopetegui ’ s departure from the Spain squad in Russia to start work immediately at Madrid means planning for the 2018 - 19 campaign can properly begin ,
with the futures of Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo surely high on the agenda of the
new coach.
Bale is under contract until the end of the 2021 -22 season , having signed a six -year deal in
October 2016 . Although regularly linked with a return to the Premier League throughout his five
seasons in Spain , he has always dismissed the idea when speaking publicly until he fell down the
pecking order under Zidane
