TIL Desk Sports/ Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane has ruled out implementing a decision taken by the Welsh national team that would forbid Gareth Bale from playing golf. Zidane said he would not “prevent” Bale from doing anything and his players are old enough to know what they should be doing.
“As a coach I am not going to prevent Gareth or any other player from doing anything,” he told a press conference. “They (the players) are old (enough) and they know what they have to do. “I am not going to tell them anything,” he said, dismissing applying a ban imposed on the Welsh national team — to which Bale also belongs — to his club.
Zidane is taking his team into weekend match action against Espanyol with six casualties. “This stretch until Christmas is very important for us,” he said, adding that he has had to seek offensive solutions and without openly saying it was Brazil’s Vinicius’ moment to shine.
