Gareth Bale has done so much for Real Madrid - and the proof is there for all to see in the statistics of his Los Blancos career and the silverware he has won.
The Welshman signed for the club in an £85million deal in the summer of 2013 and it’s fair to say his trophy cabinet is now rather crowded. Not that his efforts in the white shirt have ever really been appreciated. His time with the Spanish giants is coming to an end, with his contract up this summer, with relations with supporters and the media as fraught as ever.
At the weekend he was criticised by sections of the press for not attending Madrid's coronation as they were crowded La Liga champions for the 35th time, which he explained was down to bad back spasms. He was also booed by home supporters when he made his comeback at the Bernabeu last month, which was likely to be his farewell appearance at the famous stadium.
