The future of Gareth Bale at Spanish La Liga giants Real Madrid is quite a complicated one and there have been many things written about it in the media. While Bale appears to be disinterested in playing for the club again sometimes, other times, he just appears to be someone who just wants to try and enjoy his football. The larger part of the period when he appeared to be totally uninterested in playing football was under the club’s former manager Zinedine Zidane.
