in Spain though, with Bale\u2019s performances as captain of the Welsh national team being nothing short of heroic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Euro 2016, he led his nation to a record semi-final finish, only narrowly losing out on a place in the final to then Madrid teammate Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The former Whitchurch High School pupil has been named Wales Footballer of the Year six times in 2010, 2011, 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016, demonstrating his monumental impact for his country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, times have been turbulent in Spain for Bale in recent years, especially a particularly rocky relationship with ex-manager, Zinedine Zidane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This came to a head when Bale chose to prioritise Wales and even his amateur love for golf over his club commitments for Los Blancos with the superstar being pictured alongside a banner reading \u201cWales. Golf. Madrid. In that order.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"
