Gareth Bale returns to training with Real Madrid on Thursday morning after sitting out Wednesday's 3-0 win over Villarreal with a minor back problem.

Gareth Bale returned from a back problem to take part in Real Madrid's training session on Thursday morning.

The Welshman missed his team's 3-0 win over Villarreal on Wednesday night with a minor back injury and it had been claimed that the attacker was a doubt for next week's Champions League semi-final against Manchester City.

However, Real Madrid's official Twitter page published images of Bale taking part in a recovery training session following their comfortable home success over Villarreal.

Bale is expected to be available for this weekend's La Liga clash against Rayo Vallecano, where Real Madrid will go in search of a ninth straight league win.

The Spanish giants will then travel to England for the first leg of their Champions League semi-final against Man City next Tuesday.
