The Welsh winger may be back in the team under coach Zinedine Zidane but he admits he is not "playing happily" at the Santiago Bernabeu
Gareth Bale feels he has been made a scapegoat at Real Madrid and is eager to reach an amicable conclusion with the club over his future.
The 30-year-old came close to leaving the Santiago Bernabeu for Chinese club Jiangsu Suning during the transfer window after being told by boss Zinedine Zidane he was free to leave.
Madrid's board reportedly blocked his exit at the last minute, however, and Bale has started all three La Liga matches this term.
