"Zidane is a disgrace"

It seems like Gareth Bale has his days numbered at Real Madrid. There are lots of rumours stating that the 30 year-old Welsh striker will leave the club in the coming hours. 

The confirmation? Comments from Zidane himself in the post match press conference in the International Champions Cup against Bayern Munich in which he assured that he is finalising his exit. 

"Bale has not been with us because the club is negotiating his departure to another club. Hopefully it's imminent. I don't know if it will be tomorrow or the day after.. but as soon as possible, better. The club are doing all the paperwork now," commented the Real Madrid coach in the middle of the press conference leaving everyone surprised. 

Comments from the French coach which have not gone unnoticed by Gareth Bale's agent, Jonathan Barnett. He said the following to 'The Sun': 

"If and when Gareth goes it will be because it is in the best interest of Gareth and nothing to do with Zidane pushing. He continues to be one of the best players in the world, one of the best five and his future will continue to lie at a big club," Barnett commented. 

Furthermore, the Welsh striker did not hesitate in calling the Madrid coach "a disgrace": "Zidane is a disgrace, he shows no respect for a player that has done so much for Real Madrid."

Finally, Jonathan Barnett, just like Zidane, also confirmed Bale will be leaving Real Madrid: "We are working on it, I don't know if Real Madrid are working on it, but I am, that is clear."
