Gareth Bale will hold showdown talks with Real Madrid boss Ancelotti over future after Euro 2020 amid retirement hint


GARETH BALE will hold talks over his future with new Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti after Euro 2020.

The Wales captain, 31, was signed by ex-Everton boss Ancelotti in 2013 and the pair won the Champions League a year later.

But Bale, who had a season on loan at Tottenham, revealed last month his future plans would cause ‘chaos’.

Then Bale cast further doubt over his playing future earlier this week when he refused to rule out retiring after the Euros following reports in Spain.

Bale still has 12 months remaining on his eye-watering £650,000-a-week Real contract.

And when asked if Ancelotti’s second stint at the Bernabeu will affect his future plans, Bale said: “No, I am not thinking about anything until after the Euros.

“I know Carlo Ancelotti, he’s a great manager and I get on with him really well.

“We had some great times in the past.

“But I haven’t spoken to anyone.

“I’m not thinking about my future.
