Gareth Bale is "desperate" to return from injury in time for a Champions League final homecoming against Juventus in Cardiff on Saturday, his Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane said on Tuesday.
Bale hasn't played since suffering the latest in a series of calf injuries that have plagued his time in Madrid, against Barcelona on April 23.
For all latest news, follow The Daily Star's Google News channel. But with the Welshman back in training the pressure is on Zidane to choose between Madrid's record signing or stick with Isco.
The Spaniard has been in sensational form as Real won their last six games to beat Barca to the La Liga title last weekend.
"Gareth doesn't need to tell me anything. He is ready, he is back with us and he is absolutely desperate to play," Zidane said on Tuesday.
