Gareth Bale's agent has rubbished claims from Spanish side Getafe they have been in talks about signing the Wales star.
Getafe president Angel Torres had earlier told Spanish media he had been offered the chance within the last hour to sign Bale on a free transfer now he is out of contract. The suggestion had been Bale may be keen to remain in Madrid, where he has lived and raised his children over the past nine years.
Cardiff City fans are desperate for a deal to be done to bring the Welshman to his hometown club in what would be a stunning coup, and the Getafe claims had slighted dented optimism amid reports up to 10 teams are chasing him. But the Bluebirds remain the bookies' favourites, and one of Bale's agents, Joshua Barnett (son of Jonathan Barnett), has reportedly moved to rule out a Getafe move.
