‘Ask Madrid!’ – Mourinho Hints La Liga Giants Were To Blame For Bale’s Slow Start At Tottenham

The Portuguese says the Welshman has rediscovered his best form because of his “patient” approach to integrating him into the squad

Jose Mourinho has hinted that Real Madrid were to blame for Gareth Bale’s slow start after joining Tottenham on loan.

Bale rejoined Spurs on a season-long loan from Madrid back in September, having been exiled from Zinedine Zidane’s squad at Santiago Bernabeu.

The winger only played a bit-part role in the Blancos’ title-winning 2019-20 season, with Mourinho admitting that he needed extra time to get back to his best in north London after so long on the sidelines.
