Jakarta, CNN Indonesia —
Welsh star Gareth Bale called having an unreasonable request after planning to retire next season.
Quoted from Mirror, Bale has told friends and also representatives of his plans to retire in the season after a free transfer.
Bale currently has one season contract with Real Madrid. After the contract with Madrid expires in 2022, Bale is claimed to have no plans to play at any club.
However, the 31-year-old still has other ambitions after retiring, namely to strengthen the Wales national team in the 2022 World Cup.
Bale’s desire is a little unreasonable, because the end of the 2021/2022 season usually occurs in the middle of the year, while the 2022 World Cup is planned to be held at the end of 2022.

With these conditions, it means Bale will not feel the competition for several months from the end of the 2021/2022 season until the 2022 World Cup begins.
Bale’s chances of appearing with Wales in the 2022 World Cup remain open if the team nicknamed The Dragons qualify for the finals.
Wales currently has three points in two matches in Group E of the 2022 World Cup Qualifiers. Losing to Belgium in the first match, Wales rose by beating the Czech Republic.

Wales will play Belarus and Estonia in September and hope to qualify for their first World Cup since 1958.
With one season remaining on his contract, Bale wants to spend his time at Madrid, now coached by Carlo Ancelotti. Bale, who will turn 32 next week, is also the Wales national team’s top scorer with 33 goals.
