The Welsh star intends to stay committed to the national team until the 2022 World Cup.
Real Madrid forward Gareth Bale reportedly plans to hang up his boots at the club level next summer.
As per Marca, the Welsh star intends to play out the remaining 12 months of his contract at Bernabeu before calling it time from club football.
However, the report also adds that Bale would stay committed to the Welsh national team until the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
Bale has been subject to criticism in recent years after his standoff with the Spanish Capital club.
The 31-year-old joined Los Blancos in 2013 and had been an integral part of their attack for the first few seasons. He was also part of the famous BBC trident – Karim Benzema, Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo that wreaked havoc on their opponents.
However, injuries and inconsistency plagued his development and Zinedine Zidane, who left Bernabeu recently – overlooked the Welsh international during his reign.
Bale managed to breathe fresh air into his career after making a loan move to his former club Tottenham last season. During the six-month loan spell at Spurs, he mustered a total of 15 goals in all competitions, making a significant impact as a super sub.
However, the Euro 2020 campaign didn’t go in his way as he failed to register a goal before Denmark knocked Wales out in the round of 16.
Bale is now set to return to the Spanish capital club for the pre-season and expected to get more minutes under new manager Carlo Ancelotti.
