“Gareth is at the age where he is at the peak of his game, with enough experience and magnificent physical capability. Naturally, every day is a chance to improve and get better and Gareth still has many years of football ahead.
“He is a spectacular player, he’s a very powerful player, very fast who manages the ball really well, who scores goals and therefore he could literally win a game on his own. There aren’t many players in the world who are capable of this, therefore he is a much-loved man and we know that.

“With him ‘an essential player’ for Real and therefore with (a fully fit) Bale the likelihood of Los Blancos success increases so he’s hopeful, as am I, we’ll have him at the Bernabeu for ‘many more’ years so when the time does come for him to move on he’ll leave ‘a lasting legacy’ in Madrid.
Meanwhile, Lionel Messi has told the court that he was unaware of offshore scheme, during the hearing of tax evasion case.
I” devoted myself to playing football. I was confidant in my father and the lawyers for these issues. I didn’t think they were going to mislead or defraud me. I don’t know anything about these issues, nor have they ever interested me,” Leo Messi said.
“All I knew is that I signed the contracts with sponsors and I knew I had to [do adverts] or have photos taken. I never read anything or asked anything. I remember I went to a notary 10 years ago but I didn’t know what that was. As you can imagine, it was something different. I don’t remember that long ago.”
