Rob McElhenney, co-owner of Wrexham AFC, has reiterated his interest in persuading Gareth Bale to return from retirement, marking a renewed effort to bring the esteemed player to the Welsh club. Gareth Bale Former Real Madrid star Gareth Bale Since assuming full ownership of Wrexham in 2021, Hollywood figures McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds have significantly enhanced the club's profile and performance. Their substantial investments have notably elevated the team to League One status, prompting speculation of further financial commitments should Bale agree to join their ranks for the upcoming season.
Despite a previous unsuccessful attempt to secure Bale's services, McElhenney remains undeterred, emphasizing the allure of a final season in Bale's homeland. He expressed his continued interest in the Welshman, extending an open invitation for him to return to the pitch. “Gareth Bale is still technically available.
I don't know, I made the plea last year and I'm just going to tell Gareth that the offer's still on the table,” McElhenney remarked. “We'll let you off for golf, whenever you need to get off. As long as you come to training once or twice a week we can figure out how to get you 10 minutes on the pitch.
And the golf courses -- Wales is amongst the most beautiful countries in the world.”.
