WE already knew Gareth Bale believed in Dragons. Now he claims E.T. has a far more important meaning than extra time.
The Wales superstar insists evidence for aliens is “everywhere”.
At his peak, speedster Bale was one of the world’s most easily identifiable flying objects.
But he believes the world is full of UFOs and little green men.
By which he doesn’t just mean the Hibs and Plymouth schoolboy teams.
The Real Madrid misfit, 32, told Sky Sports: “The evidence is everywhere. People need to research it.
“I’ve been looking into it for years and obviously there’s a lot of fake stuff out there.
“But I think the US government recently released a few images, a few video footages, of Unidentified Flying Objects, so it’s all online.
“And I think there are a few programmes on Netflix and stuff.
“So, yes, it’s interesting. I’m quite into it and that’s why i believe it.
“The amount of sightings we have – they can’t all be false.”
But the former Tottenham winger admitted he has yet to convince Spurs striker and England skipper Harry Kane.
Bale said: “He hasn’t done enough research, has he!”

Both Kane and Bale are of course currently focusing on Euro 2020.
But while Kane’s domestic 2020-21 season was out of this world, Bale’s club career is in limbo.
Having been at Spurs twice before – permanently and then on loan – perhaps he is now looking for a close encounter of the third kind.
