Jose Mourinho 'tells Real Madrid he is fed up with Gareth Bale'

Tottenham Hotspur boss Jose Mourinho tells Real Madrid president Florentino Perez that he is 'fed up' with Gareth Bale, according to a report.

Tottenham Hotspur boss Jose Mourinho has reportedly told Real Madrid president Florentino Perez that he is 'fed up' with Gareth Bale.

The Wales international returned to Spurs last summer and is due to spend the entire 2020-21 campaign on loan with the Premier League club before returning to the Spanish capital.

The 31-year-old has failed to make his mark for the London giants this term, though, contributing just four goals in 15 appearances in all competitions, while he has netted just once in six Premier League outings.

Bale's commitment has been called into question, while a recent misunderstanding following an Instagram post from the attacker is thought to have led to more issues between the Welshman and Mourinho.

According to Defensa Central, the Spurs manager has told Madrid president Perez that he is 'fed up' with the former Southampton youngster and has expressed his 'discontent' and 'disappointment' with the situation.

Bale's contract at the Bernabeu is due to run until next summer, but it seems unlikely that he will represent Madrid again, leaving the Spanish giants with a huge issue ahead of the 2021-22 campaign.
