Jonathan Barnett, the agent for Real Madrid star Gareth Bale, has dismissed suggestions that Los Blancos will consider offloading his client in the summer due to his persistent injury problems, with Manchester United long linked with the forward.
Manu Sainz of AS claimed that Real are growing tired of the Welshman’s fitness issues, having reportedly broken down 11 times with injuries since joining in 2013. However, Barnett has blasted both Sainz and the content of the report.
“It’s a completely rubbish story made by an irresponsible and totally ill-informed journalist,” he said, per Adrian Kajumba of the Daily Mirror.
