The Frecnh coach Zinedine Zidane ruled out Gareth Bale for this season because he already had players in that position, for his lack of relationship with him and for the performance he had given in recent months because of injuries that have been hampering his stay in Madrid.
Bale has been a key player in Madrid and has appeared in big clashes, which was enough to see him stay one more year in Madrid. The soap opera of which he was the protagonist had a happy ending for him.
"I had amazing holidays and kept my cool in preseason. There was a lot of talk, but i continued working hard. Things happen and they will keep being private within the club, but if you want answers, maybe you should ask Madrid", Bale stated.
The Welshman stressed that he has not had such a bad time as he has said this summer and has celebrated his entry into the season: "It was not great, but not the worst. I had a good preseason and I started very well. The passion for football is never gone. If you work hard, you will be rewarded. "
"I don't listen to the critics. I don't read anything and the majority of people don't know the situation," continued Bale in a press conference in which of course, questions were asked about what has gone on in this summer's market.
Finally, Bale stressed that he is at a great physical level and eager to face the season that comes upon him both in Real Madrid and in the Wales National Team.
