Gareth Bale says hes not deflected by speculation over his future at heart Real Madrid.
The 30-year-old ismad andfed at the Spanish giants and wishes to leave the club, according to BBC Radio 5 Lives Guillem Balague.
Bale says he is focused on Wales as he prepares to face Slovakia in Trnava.
I enjoy meeting up with Wales, everyone knows that; I havent got anything to clean my thoughts about, he said.
Weve got a task at hand to try and qualify and this is a large game. We wish to put ourselves back in the mix.
Bale had been set to join Super League side Jiangsu Suning that was Chinese on a contract in summer time – earning a reported #1m per week but Real cancelled the deal since they wanted a transport fee.
Back in July, Actual manager Zinedine Zidane saidwe hope that he leaves soon, a remark to which Bales agent Jonathan Barnett responded:Zidane is a disgrace – that he shows no respect for a player who has done a lot for Real Madrid.
As theyve moved into the top of La Liga, bale has returned to the actual team this season, scoring games.
The forwards downplayed the belief that he ismad when requested abut his current situation at Real Madrid.
I believe you play with a great deal of emotion and anger stems into it naturally, but Im simply trying to play football, to enjoy it as far as I could and provide my best, if I am here or in Madrid, he explained.
Whenever I step onto the pitch I devote 100 percent to help the group and I shall continue to do this
Wales manager Ryan Giggs believes Bales scenario at Madrid says that his impressive club type can be of advantage and has improved.
Im not too sure. I believe now, looking from the outside, matters have improved, Giggs said.
How that hes playing – which is all that footballers wish to perform, they would like to playwith, they would like to get minutes, they need to do well – I have always said hes at an excellent club.
Of course, it would have unsettled him because it was apparently very close for him moving.
But things may have changed. Things do change in soccer and now hes playing, hes adored, he is happy, and I expect him to continue doing what hes performing for Real Madrid.
If Gareth Bale reaches your team and hes training well and that he gets the opportunity to playwith, hes going to keep you curious because he can turn a match on its headhe can score goals and he is such an asset.
So I am not surprised in this respect. I was amazed with what occurred in the summer – I think everyone from the outside thought it was a bit strange, but it seems like everything has gone a little quiet today.
I believe thats all you ask for – for gamers to maintain good form for their clubs and then take it in the global arena.
Gareth just scored the winner from Azerbaijan and he is a enormous part [of the group ]. Hes our best player and hes been captain as well recently. Hes a big player, obviously, for us.
