Jonathan Barnett, agent for Gareth Bale, that last summer, when the Welshman seemed to be one step away from leaving Madrid, said Zidane was an “ungrateful”, now blames the Press for the misfortunes of his client.
“The relationship with the club has always been good. I have had a fantastic relationship with the President, CEO and Zidane. Obviously we have had some words between us, but who does not have an argument sometime. In any case, it was never personal and not in a bad tone, but on good terms, ”he said in an interview with Talksport.
“Nothing bad has ever come out of Real Madrid about Gareth Bale, and Zidane has never said anything bad about Gareth Bale, but the press continues to invent things, “he explained.
“The so-called experts appear on television over and over again and say things like that the biggest problem with Gareth Bale is that he doesn't speak Spanish, and it is a disgrace. Those people never know him and never asked anyone, so I have no idea where they get this opinion. Gareth Bale speaks Spanish, so I don't want to listen to these so-called experts who become idiots complete when they go to television to talk trash, “he added.
“AND I also blame television companies for attracting these so-called experts. How can these experts at Gareth Bale talk about him when they don't know him. It's a joke! “He concluded.
