With 8 goals in 22 league games, it is fair to say that Gareth Bale has endured another disappointing season with the Los Blancos. After a promising start to his Real Madrid career, Gareth Bale was touted to be the next big prospect alongside Neymar in world football, after Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. Alongside, Benzema and Cristiano, Gareth Bale was a part of the famed 'BBC' trio.
However, his career has been injury-laden since then and he has struggled to make an impact whenever he has stepped onto the pitch. After Cristiano's departure to Juventus last summer, many pundits touted him to replicate the impact of the Portuguese superstar, which he has miserably failed to do, to say the least.
In the midst of all these events, many reports have emerged in Spain linking him away from Madrid, with the likes of Manchester United, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspurs and Bayern Munich being interested in the Welshman. Out of all these clubs, PSG seems to be the ideal destination for Gareth Bale, due to the following reasons:-
Trending
#1 Neymar/Mbappe replacement
Ever since his Santos days, Neymar has been repeatedly linked with a move to Real Madrid. While he chose to move to Barcelona in 2013, he departed for Paris Saint-Germain in 2017 and has been linked to Los Blancos ever since.
The links have aggravated even further with the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo to Juventus in last summer, with Real Madrid searching for a replacement for the magisterial Portuguese.
In addition to that, Mbappe has been linked to Real Madrid as well for a pretty long time and it could be a possibility that either of them would leave Paris for the Spanish Capital this summer.
While Neymar's departure would mean that Bale would be signed as a direct replacement for the Brazilian on the left wing, Mbappe's departure would mean that Neymar would play as a no.10 with Di Maria and Bale flanking on either side of him.
The important thing to note here is that Gareth Bale needs to play as a left winger if he is to succeed.
#2 The return of Zidane to Madrid
With Zinedine Zidane returning to Real Madrid 10 months after his departure, Bale's future at the Spanish capital looks even bleaker. It is no secret that Zidane preferred players like Isco and Asensio to the Welshman during his three years as a Real Madrid coach.
In addition to that, various reports have emerged in the Spanish media that Zidane has been promised a budget of €300 million in the summer transfer window, and with the current rise of Vinicius Jr. along with the likes of Hazard, Neymar, and Mbappe being linked to Los Blancos in recent times, it is highly likely that Bale's playing time would dip drastically next season, if he were to stay.
In such a situation, it is important that Gareth Bale moves away from Real Madrid this summer to revive his waning career.
#3 Experience in the Champions League
Even after splurging millions on players like Neymar, Mbappe, and Di Maria over the last few years, the Parisian club have still not been able to go past the quarterfinals of the Champions League. In such a situation, the experience of someone like Gareth Bale can prove to be very useful for the Parisian club's squad.
Bale does have a knack of performing well in some important knockout games, which can be useful for a club like PSG who have an infamous reputation of cracking in crunch games.
Moreover, paying the wage bill of Gareth Bale won't be too much of a problem for the Qatari owners of Paris Saint-Germain.
Conclusion
A move away from Real Madrid seems to be the most likely outcome for Gareth Bale this season. With a host of clubs interested in the signature of the Welshman, a move to Paris Saint-Germain seems to be the most profitable one for both parties.
