Jose Mourinho has taken a swipe at Gareth Bale after saying an Instagram post by the forward is “totally wrong” and that there was a “contradiction between the post and reality.”
Bale posted an image of himself in training on Tuesday with the caption “good session today”, which appears to suggest he was fit and available for selection.
However, after leaving the Wales international out of the squad for Wednesday’s trip to Everton, Mourinho said Bale had asked not to be involved and requested a scan on an injury with the Spurs boss doubling down on those assertions when speaking to reporters on Friday.
