Real Madrid's Gareth Bale will reportedly consider hanging up his boots later this year if Wales fail to qualify for the 2022 World Cup.

Gareth Bale will supposedly consider hanging up his boots when his Real Madrid contract expires in the summer.

The 32-year-old has once again been bedevilled by injuries this term and has only made three appearances in the 2021-22 La Liga season, scoring a solitary goal.

Bale has now entered the final six months of his deal at the Bernabeu, and there is no indication that his stay in the Spanish capital will be extended.

According to The Athletic, Bale will give serious consideration to retiring as a professional footballer if Wales fail to qualify for this year's World Cup in Qatar.

In order to qualify for the tournament via the playoffs, Rob Page's side must firstly navigate their semi-final with Austria before taking on Scotland or Ukraine at the end of March.

Should Wales ultimately make it to the World Cup, Bale will supposedly look to pen a short-term contract with a foreign club once his Real Madrid deal runs out.

The former Tottenham Hotspur man has banked 106 goals and 67 assists in 254 appearances for Real Madrid, winning four Champions Leagues, two La Liga titles and one Copa del Rey since arriving in 2013. body check tags ::
