Report: Bale expects to stay at Madrid

A report claims that Gareth Bale's relationship with Zinedine Zidane is at an all-time low, but the Welshman expects to still be at Real Madrid beyond the summer.

Gareth Bale reportedly expects to still be a Real Madrid player next season despite his relationship with Zinedine Zidane being at an all-time low.

The Wales international's future at the Bernabeu appeared to be hanging in the balance after being hauled off midway through Los Blancos' 3-1 defeat to Juventus on Wednesday.

According to The Sun, however, Bale does not believe that Real plan on selling him in the summer, with his rumoured £600,000-a-week wages putting off suitors from coming forward.

Bale's relationship with Zidane is said to be growing increasingly uncomfortable and is a worry for club chiefs, as the former world's most expensive player is now seen as a back-up option in big matches.

Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain and Inter Milan have been most strongly linked with the 28-year-old in the past, while a swap deal with Chelsea's Eden Hazard has also been mooted.
