Wales manager Rob Page wants Gareth Bale to stay involved in the international set-up after the star forward announced he was hanging up his boots.
Bale, a five-time Champions League winner at Real Madrid, ended a glittering career on Monday after winning 111 caps and scoring 41 goals for his country—both national records for the men’s team. “I told him I think it’s the right time to bow out,” he told the BBC. Page said he had spoken with Bale about his staying within the Wales set-up, although the exact nature of any potential role remains unclear. “I would love him still to be involved in some capacity, what that role is I don’t know yet,” he said.
