Gareth Bale still playing professional football at 35? Rightio….

Anyway, we’ll apparently see one way or the other in the next few days.
I've read plenty of player interviews where they've said representing their country at the World Cup is the highlight of their career. I haven't seen much from Bale over the years to imagine him saying anything different after he retires. So being a few months away from the World Cup, I would think it's his primary focus.

I said he could still play in the US at 35, he's quite capable of it, not that he definitely would still be playing then.
