“Flattered by the Offers but..” – Urged to Invest in Wrexham, Gareth Bale’s Environment Puts the Final Nail in the Coffin Despite Consistent Requests From Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney

Wrexham AFC owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney have been trying to convince Gareth Bale to join the club. They started their efforts after the Red Dragons sealed the promotion to League Two. Recently, they convinced Ben Foster to come out of retirement to join the club. However, recent comments from Bale’s agent have put an end to all the speculations.

Meanwhile, amid the saga, Bale’s former national teammate Neil Taylor has advised the former Real Madrid star. Taylor has urged Bale to connect with the North Wales club in another capacity. The former Wrexham defender wants Bale to invest in the club and contribute. 

Meanwhile, Bale’s agent thinks the Welsh superstar is enjoying his time and doesn’t want to play soccer anymore. 

Gareth Bale’s agent with a massive update on his future

Jonathan Barnett recently spoke to Sky Sports. He was asked about the offer from Wrexham to Gareth Bale. Barnett replied, “I don’t think so. He’s flattered by the offers, but they’ve all been tongue-in-cheek.” Barnett added, “He’s having a great life at the moment and it’s well deserved. He’s been the best British soccer player, probably ever and having well deserved rest. We’ll see how things go,” on how Bale is spending his time.

On asking about McElhenney and Reynolds contacting Bale, Barnett said, “They haven’t actually spoken to me. They may have spoken to Gareth. But Gareth doesn’t want to play football anymore.” Barnett insisted that the player is enjoying his life with his family currently. 

“He’s had a great career, he enjoyed himself, but he’s living a great life now. He’s with his family, which is the most important thing. He’s spending a lot of time with his children, and that’s what he wants to do. He’ll do obviously do other things later down the line,” Barnett said.

It looks like Bale won’t be joining the third-oldest soccer club by coming out of retirement.
