Real Madrid: "Bale has had a hard time, he deserves to be happy" says agent Jonathan Barnett
Gareth Bale's agent Jonathan Barnett told Sky Sport that the Welsh forward "has got a smile back on his face and that he's enjoying life" back at Tottenham.
Gareth Bale's agent Jonathan Barnett says that the Welsh forward has regained his smile and is happy back at Spurs after having "a hard time" at Real Madrid. Things are looking up for Bale since his return to his former club, where he will be eyeing silverware under Jose Mourinho this season.
Bale back to life, back to reality at Spurs
"He loves it (at Tottenham). The most important thing is he has got a smile back on his face and that he's enjoying life," Barnett told Sky Sports in an exclusive interview.
Regarding his exit from Real Madrid, Barnett explained that Bale had to go to "somewhere he wanted to go. For him, it wasn't about money. If he was going to go somewhere it was going to be somewhere that he'd enjoy. He's had offers and it wasn't right for him. When Tottenham came knocking, it was right. He's had a hard time and now he's going to enjoy himself. He deserves to be happy. He's been probably one of Britain's best ambassadors. He wasn't going anywhere with Real Madrid. We'd got to an impasse and some silly things were happening on both sides".
