Zinedine Zidane Says Gareth Bale '100 Percent Committed' to Real Madrid

Gareth Bale is 100 percent committed to Real Madrid despite ongoing rumours he could leave the club, according to manager Zinedine Zidane.

Rodrigo Faez of ESPN FC recently reported Bale wants out of the Santiago Bernabeu "at the earliest possible opportunity," in no small part due to his "embittered relationship" with Zidane.

Speaking ahead of Real's La Liga meeting with Leganes on Wednesday, after Bale was seen in London, Zidane attempted to diffuse the situation, per Marca:

"We have a good relationship, I've not spoken to him about leaving and he never talks about it either.
