Gareth Bale Spotted Playing Golf At The Same Time As Spurs Beat Real Madrid

Real Madrid wantaway Gareth Bale was playing golf at the same time as his side suffered a 1-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur, according to reports in Spain.

The Wales international, 30, did not travel with the squad as Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane claimed he was unwell to make the trip to Munich.

"I've got three years left on my contract. If they want me to go, they'll need to pay me €17m per season. If not, I'll stay here. And if I have to play golf, I will," he allegedly said.

But 'Zizou,' 47, insisted that he didn't travel due to his transfer falling through.

"He didn't travel with us because he just didn't feel well. The doctors said it would be better if he stayed in Madrid. He trains there," the Madrid boss said.

"It was a decision that was made between the medical department, me and him. And that's it."

Zidane came out publicly this month to say that the ex-Spurs star didn't fit in his plans at the club.

He said: "Zidane is a disgrace to speak like that about someone who has done so much for Real.

"If and when Gareth goes it will be because it is in the best interest of Gareth and nothing to do with Zidane pushing."

Will Bale leave Madrid this summer?
