Gareth Bale to say special goodbye to Wales fans at Tuesday's match

Gareth Bale is set to be given a special send-off from Wales fans after announcing his retirement from football.

The legendary forward will be at the Cardiff City Stadium on Tuesday night for Wales' clash with Latvia, with the Red Wall bidding farewell to their former captain ahead of kick-off. The Euro 2024 qualifier is the first Wales home game to be played since Bale announced his retirement in January, with the 33-year-old set to be the subject of a pre-match presentation which will see him address what is expected to be a sell out crowd.

The former Tottenham Hotspur and Real Madrid star announced he was retiring from football with immediate effect earlier this year, having won 111 caps for Wales, shining during their historic Euro 2016 campaign before captaining his country at Euro 2020 and the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
