Gareth Bale's agent, Jonathan Barnett, spoke again, and this time he did so to lighten the mood a bit. After Zidane didn't even call him up for the last La Liga match of the season, the player's agent had a conciliatory tone. However, he warned that Bale doesn't want to go anywhere.

"Gareth is fine. He has two years left on his contract", Barnett told the 'BBC'. "Gareth is not looking to outlast Zinedine Zidane. Mr Zidane has been very successful", the agent continued.

"There's no hatred. Mr Zidane just does not want to play him. Gareth trains every day and he trains well", Barnett insisted.

Making the most of the opportunity, the players' agent stuck his chest out again because of Bale's quality, who hasn't been able to demonstrate his good football at almost any point in a controversial season.

"Gareth is one of the best players in the world. The best players in the world do not go out on loan. Of course there's been interest but there's hardly a club in the world which can afford him. It's a great loss that he's not in the Real Madrid team at the moment but he will not leave", Barnett said.
