Gareth Bale could end his career at the end of this season, when his contract with Real Madrid ends, reports The Athletic.
The possibility gains strength if the Wales team does not qualify for the 2022 World Cup, which will take place in Qatar. The Welsh, remember, are in play off, where they will face Austria. In case of victory, they will face Scotland or Ukraine as the last stage to be in the competition that will take place in Qatar from November.
Says The Athletic that, if Wales secures qualification (something that hasn’t happened since 1958), Bale is considering signing a short-term contract to keep in shape until the start of the World Cup, with Cardiff or Swansea as possibilities, both currently playing in the Championship (equivalent to League 2 in England). Otherwise… the race is over.
The player, remember, has been linked to Real Madrid since 2013, costing 100 million euros at the time. This season it takes just three games for the You meringues.
