Bale wants Real Madrid return

According to a recent report from AS, Gareth Bale is planning on returning to Real Madrid during the summer transfer window.

The Welshman has been out on loan at Tottenham Hotspur this season with many wondering whether or not he’d turn it into a permanent move. That talk seems to have fizzled out, with this report suggesting he will actually see out the final year of his contract before retiring from football altogether.

Bale has accomplished a great deal throughout the course of his career in the beautiful game and after all he’s been through, it makes sense that he may want to walk away whilst still towards the top of the mountain.

He’s one of the most intriguing figures of his generation in this sport and whether he stays in London or goes back over to Madrid, all eyes will be on his immediate future and what that entails.
