Real Madrid will now take on Borussia Dortmund at Wembley on June 1.

And Bale revealed he will be there to cheer on his former side as they bid to win the Champions League for a record-extending 15th time.

The former winger, who retired last year, tweeted for the first time in eight months, saying: “Hala Madriddd!! See you at Wembley boys.”

Bale, 34, has plenty of experience playing in the Champions League with Real and scored a key equaliser in the final against Atletico Madrid when they won La Decima in 2014.
