Is that Usain Bolt? Is it a human cartridge? No, no, it’s Gareth Bale! The words of a Spanish journalist still resonate in the minds of true fans: since Bale started the sprint of the year in the Copa del Rey final in his own half, Barça defender Marc Bartra remained a junior. and sank the archrival unaided.
This Welshman will become immortal in Spain, it was thought at the time. He will become a legend in the history books of Madrid. It will be one of the largest.
I thought wrong Six years later, Gareth Bale enjoys everything but hero status in the Spanish capital. He is not popular with fans, even though the 30-year-old has been playing for royalty for seven seasons.
The matter of golf
The relationship between fans and Bale was broken last summer at the latest. At that time, the offensive star wanted to provoke his departure for China. If he leaves tomorrow, it would be much better. Hopefully the start will be prompt, “said coach Zinedine Zidane. But the deal fell through, and Bale made it clear: “I still have a three-year contract. If you want me to go, you have to pay me 17 million euros per season. Otherwise, I will stay here and play golf. »This statement was not well received by fans.
Bale earns more than 700,000 francs in Madrid, per week! It is clear that fans have certain expectations, and react with whistle concerts if they are not met. Then Bale in Santiago Bernabéu has repeatedly felt the displeasure of the ranks. Something that is completely incomprehensible to him.
Bale does the accounting
In an interview with “The Hat-Trick Podcast”, the most expensive transfer in club history from Real Madrid (CHF 106 million) is now complaining. It’s one of those things you don’t expect. When I arrived in Madrid, I really didn’t know anything about it. You don’t expect fans to do this to their own player, ”Bale said of the whistle against him. He does not understand the displeasure. «When they start to whistle, their confidence falls even more, everything becomes even more difficult. You will play worse, which will make them more angry. It doesn’t make sense to me. It still confuses me to this day, I don’t get it.
Bale certainly cannot be called a failure in Madrid, he has decided too many important games in favor of royalty. However, this relationship was never a great love, and never will be. The Spanish media write that Bale should be sold this summer. A return to the Premier League at Tottenham is in the room, as is a transfer to MLS. (mam)
