Bale Ruled Out Of Champions League squad

.Coaching staff are reportedly concerned about his recovery from the calf-injury he is suffering with.

And believe he may not even feature in the first-team until mid-November, after the next international break.
His season has been blighted by injury, with this particular niggle picked up after scoring a screamer in Real Madrid‘s group stage fixture against Borussia Dortmund.

Bale has been sidelined since the 3-1 win against the Germans and was instructed to rest for a month which has resulted in him training away from the rest of the squad.

The reigning European champions are likely to face Girona, Tottenham and Las Palmas without Bale.

Bale’s boss has already shared doubts over the return of the winger, Zinedine Zidane said: “Bale is already on the field, almost ready to train with the team, but I can’t give you a date for when he’s back.”
