Real Madrid forward Gareth Bale has said it’s his ambition to play in the Champions League final at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff after the ground was announced as the host of the showpiece event in 2017.

The 25-year-old told the Football Association of Wales that it was a proud moment for the country to be chosen. The final will be played on June 3, 2017.

The forward, who scored in the 2014 Champions League final as Real ended their 12-year wait to win La Decima, said: “I know how passionate the Welsh football fans are so it’s great the Uefa Champions League final is coming to my home city of Cardiff.”

He added: “These are exciting times for Welsh football. It feels like the whole country is behind us as we attempt to reach next year’s Uefa Euro 2016 finals in France. I loved playing in the Uefa Super Cup last year and it would be fantastic to be involved in front of a packed crowd at such an iconic stadium in 2017.”

Bale is a regular goalscorer at the stadium and netted Wales’ only goal in their vital win over Belgium last month as they seek to qualify for the European Championships next summer.

  1. Bale is a regular goalscorer at the stadium and netted Wales’ only goal in their vital win over Belgium last month as they seek to qualify for the European Championships next summer…?

    Your research is pretty poor, the Champions League final is to be played at The Millennium Stadium not The Cardiff City Stadium, you’ve a bit of a nerve calling yourself a experienced journalist and online marketing professional

  2. If indeed Bale has hints out his desire to play in Cardiff next year then he must improve effectively.He must be outstanding and sensational and prove beyond imagination so that he would be up there as he wished.The entire Madrid team need back up and each and player must work hard for happened this year to be repeated again.

  3. Yes is good to be haven the zeal of that ambition but they most change their characteristics and doing good in the fitch not doing wrong and rubish and selfish as he done last season.
