Bale joins group training session

On November 29th, Gareth Bale succumbed to a lengthy right ankle injury, although that now looks to be finally passed him as he nears his return, rejoining the rest of the squad in Sunday morning's training session. It'll be a welcome boost for Zinedine Zidane who will finally be able to play BBC all together again, after more than
100 days without his star trio.
Starting February 2nd, the Welsh winger restarted his solo fitness and on-ball recovery drills and now he is already been given the medical green light to train like usual with his teammates.
The first leg Champions League Round of 16 match against Napoli may come too soon, but the Welshman should return against Espanyol or Valencia in LaLiga within the next few weeks.
That means he'll be more than ready for the all important Champions League return leg at Stadio San Paolo.
The match squad for Wednesday's key clash is as follows: Kiko Casilla, Ruben Yáñez, Dani Carvajal, Pepe, Fabio Coentrao, Toni Kroos, Mateo Kovacic, James Rodríguez, Bale, Lucas Vázquez, Marco Asensio, Álvaro Morata and Mariano.
