ZIDANE: “I do not have a personal problem with Bale. It will go in 24-48 hours. I talk to the club and the decision (of his departure) is made by the coach, which is me. But also the player, who knows his situation “
ZIDANE: “No tengo un problema personal con Bale. Se irá en 24-48 horas. Hablo con el club y la decisión (de su salida) la toma el entrenador, que soy yo. Pero también el jugador, que conoce su situación”

What do you make of his comments, is this something better kept behind closed doors or do you admire his hinesty about a player he doesn’t like?
Gareth Bale will only leave Real Madrid if it’s the right move for him & his family.
Provisional discussions have been held with clubs which could see him move this summer. His advisers won’t comment on links to Bayern, Spurs & Man Utd but “there could be a surprise this summer”— Kaveh Solhekol (@SkyKaveh) July 21, 2019
It seems Bale will only do what suits him, not his manager.
Bale's agent Jonathan Barnett not happy with Zidane's comments.
On whether a deal is close for Bale to leave RM, he says: "We are working on it."
On Zidane: "Zidane is a disgrace, he shows no respect for a player that has done so much for Real Madrid."
