Jose Mourinho has confirmed that Gareth Bale could play for Tottenham Hotspur in their FA Cup third round match at Marine on Sunday.
The non-league team have played seven matches to reach this stage of the competition and could be rewarded by facing one of football’s biggest stars.
Spurs have already reached the final of the Carabao Cup this season and will be eager to make similar progress in the FA Cup.
Bale has struggled for fitness and form since returning to Spurs on loan from Real Madrid, but he has indicated that he wants to be involved this weekend.
