Gareth Bale Says Reported Problems with Cristiano Ronaldo 'Were Never There'

Gareth Bale has denied ever having a rift with former Real Madrid team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo during the latter's time at the club.

The pair were part of Los Blancos' forward line from when Bale joined in 2013 until Ronaldo's departure to Juventus last summer.

The Welshman spoke to BT Sport and reflected on his time with Ronaldo:

Per MailOnline's Nathan Salt, he said:

"Obviously the media try and hype up these problems which were never there.
