Zidane introduces Madrid outcast Bale at half-time against Arsenal

Expected to leave the Spanish giants this close season, the winger came on at half-time against Arsenal and scored quickly upon his introduction

Real Madrid outcast Gareth Bale was introduced by Zinedine Zidane at half-time in the International Champions Cup clash with Arsenal.

Bale has been tipped for an imminent departure from Madrid after he was left out of the squad for last week's defeat to Bayern Munich.

Zidane confirmed Bale was close to leaving the Santiago Bernabeu, with the Madrid boss determined to sell the Wales international sooner rather than later.
