Real Madrid The Welshman targets El Clasico return

Bale definitely misses Bayern clash

Bale: Real Madrid not at their best yet

Barcelona face Real Madrid on Sunday, and Gareth Bale is working hard in order to play.

The winger has been suffering with a pain near his soleus and subsequently his ankle, injuries that have plagued the Welsh star during various parts of this season.

They seem to be the reason why he has not performed to his full potential recently.

Different training techniques have been put in place to help solve the issue, along with specific work with his own physiotherapist Jaime Benito.

Zinedine Zidane had to replace Bale early against Bayern Munich in the first leg of the Champions League clash last Wednesday, Marco Asensio taking his place much to the Welshman`s disgust.

However, the Frenchman has a zero tolerance policy when it comes to minor risks which is why he didn't play against Sporting Gijon and why also won't be in the lineup for the second leg against the Bavarians.

Club staff will do their very best in making sure he is 100% fit for the remainder of the season.
