Gareth Bale signed on 1st September 2013 for €100.8 million from Tottenham. A world record fee at the time, he was coming off a blistering season with Tottenham where he won multiple individual honours. At Real Madrid though, his performance has been curtailed by injuries which have prevented him from reaching his peak.

He does show the odd flash of brilliance and has scored plenty of important goals for RM especially in the Champions League, but he hasn’t been able to move out of CR’s shadow. If Real Madrid don’t make a marquee signing, the pressure will be on him to deliver and there are serious doubts if he can stay fit throughout the campaign and deliver.
