The agent of Real Madrid attacker Gareth Bale slams "rubbish reporting" after claims that his client could elect to become a professional golfer.

The agent of Real Madrid attacker Gareth Bale has rubbished reports claiming that his client is aiming to retire from football and become a full-time professional golfer.

The Welshman's future is currently shrouded in uncertainty, as he has just over 12 months remaining on his Blancos deal after a solid loan spell back at Tottenham Hotspur.

Recent reports from Spain have made the audacious claim that Bale, renowned for his love of golf, could hang up his boots and move into the sport as professionally, but agent Jonathan Barnett has been quick to falsify such reports.

Speaking briefly to talkSPORT, the 71-year-old said: "Sorry, I don't speak about rubbish reporting."

Bale's brace on the final day of the Premier League season against Leicester City helped the Lilywhites secure a place in the inaugural UEFA Conference League, and he ended the 2020-21 season with 16 goals and three assists across all competitions.

The former Southampton man has endured a fractious relationship with Zinedine Zidane at Real Madrid, although the Frenchman has reportedly left the club in recent hours.
