Gareth Bale has laughed off the idea that he could trade Tottenham for Wrexham after the National League side were taken over by actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney this week.
There had been speculation in recent months that the Hollywood duo could take over the Welsh club, and the news was confirmed this week.
But when asked whether he could finish his career at Wrexham, Wales captain Bale said that such a move was unlikely.
“Hopefully it’s good for Wrexham – I haven’t read too much about it, but I have heard about,” Bale said of the takeover.
“Hopefully they do good things for Wrexham and get them back into the football league.”
“It’s a bit too far for me from Cardiff!” added Bale, who was born in the Welsh capital.
Bale rejoined Spurs this summer on a season-long loan from Real Madrid. The winger left the north London club for Madrid in 2013 for a then-world record transfer fee, but the 31-year-old has endured a difficult relationship with Bernabeu legend and current head coach Zinedine Zidane in recent years.
