Football star Gareth Bale looks set to leave Real Madrid to join Chinese club Jiangsu Suning on a three-year deal.

There are reports that Bale would earn £1 million a week in China. Yes - we did say £1 million!!

Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane had said the Welsh player was "very close to leaving" after he was left out of their 3-1 pre-season defeat by Bayern Munich.

Gareth Bale is thought to be leaving the Spanish club after a disagreement with his manager.

Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane has said it would be best for everyone if Bale leaves the club.

Speaking after the game against Bayern Munich, Zidane said: "We are working on his transfer to a new team."

Bale has won the Champions League four times since his £85m move to Madrid from Tottenham in 2013 - a world record deal at the time.

His agent Jonathan Barnett said: "Zidane is a disgrace - he shows no respect for a player that has done so much for Real Madrid."

Zidane said: "I have nothing personal against him, but there comes a time where things are done because they must be done."

So, how did we get to this point? Here's Gareth Bale's story so far.
