Real Madrid star Gareth Bale not returning to Premier League, says his agent

Gareth Bale’s  agent insists the forward is not going to return to the Premier League this summer despite seemingly having fallen out of favour at  Real Madrid . The Welsh forward has been missing for many of Madrid’s most crucial games in what has been another season disrupted by injury and started the Champions League knockout games against Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus on the bench. Indeed in the quarter-final first leg he did not even make it onto the pitch and in total Bale has made just 21 starts for Madrid and 10 further appearances off the bench, though in those games he has scored 14 goals and provided eight assists. The former Tottenham forward was criticised by Jorge Valdano despite laying on Cristiano Ronaldo’s goal in a 1-1 draw with Atletico Madrid on Saturday, with the ex-Madrid player and director saying “nothing that Bale does is worth €100 million, and that is the figure he wears on his jersey.” READ MORE Zidane defends decision to sub Ronaldo ear
