You're always trying to stir up trouble between Gareth Bale and me - Zidane slams reporter

Real Madrid manager, Zinedine Zidane has fumed at a question by a reporter which he described as an attempt to put a wedge between him and the club's winger, Gareth Bale.

The reporter had asked if Zidane feels it would be better for the atmosphere within the squad if Gareth Bale were to leave Real Madrid this summer.

The Frenchman responded by stating that the club and its players are all united and only concerned about their next game.

Zidane replied: "That's no concern of mine, pal. What a question! ...so what can I say? We are thinking about tomorrow's game and Gareth Bale is doing exactly the same, all he is thinking about is tomorrow's game. He is one of us. You are trying to put things between us, trying to stir up trouble but you will not be able to do that, ok?

"And another thing, every day you ask me the same question... fine, you are within your rights to do that or ask whatever you want but in the end, I hope you know that you will not succeed [in driving a wedge between us]. We are united, as one, and all of us think exactly the same - Gareth, James and all of us here think exactly the same and we all want the same thing".
