Gareth Bale may have retired in January 2023, but Wrexham co-owner Rob McElhenney is still hoping the former Welsh soccer star will join his club, ESPN reported.

"Gareth Bale is still technically available. I don't know, I made the plea last year and I'm just going to tell Gareth that the offer's still on the table," McElhenney said, per ESPN.

McElhenney went on to make his pitch to Bale: "We'll let you off for golf, whenever you need to get off. As long as you come to training once or twice a week we can figure out how to get you 10 minutes on the pitch.
