Wales superstar Gareth Bale has fuelled rumours of a potential fairy-tale move to hometown club Cardiff City this summer.
The 32-year-old is a free agent after departing Real Madrid following nine trophy-laden years in Spain. Earlier this month, he helped his country beat Ukraine in a play-off final to book their place at the World Cup in Qatar later this year - their first appearance on the world stage since 1958.
Bale's next move at club level remains shrouded in mystery but one rumour that refuses to go away is a possible link-up with Cardiff, the city of his birth. On Monday, at a pre-match press conference ahead of Wales' Nations League clash away in the Netherlands, Bale was directly asked for the first time about the possibility of a move to the Championship side.
