‘I’ve had to grow up’ – Spurs to reap benefits of evolved Bale – The World Game
Gareth Bale is confident he can handle any pressure at Tottenham after living with a target on his back at Real Madrid.
The Wales star is back in north London and itching to get started at Tottenham, with a minor knee injury delaying his second debut for the club.
Bale spent six years at Tottenham before leaving for Madrid in 2013, winning four UEFA Champions League titles and La Liga twice with Los Blancos before his time in Spain turned sour.
As his performances dipped, and as Zinedine Zidane stopped counting on him as a first-team regular, Bale began to lose the faith of the Santiago Bernabeu crowd.
