Mauricio Pochettino has been talking about the imminent transfer of Gareth Bale to his former club.
He told COPE: “Bale is a magnificent footballer at an age that still has strength, experience and maturity.
“He has been decisive in Madrid, he has won four European Cups, he has scored in important games … he has always been very affectionate with me.”
Pochettino also said that such an agreement would never have been possible during his time at the club.
“There was never the possibility. Everything was focused on building the stadium, but it would have been a great contribution to the team.”
