Man Utd vs Real Madrid: Bale reveals what he told Lukaku after pre-season friendly

Real Madrid forward, Gareth Bale, has revealed what he said to Romelu Lukaku, following Manchester United’s penalty victory over Real Madrid in Sunday’s ICC meeting.

Bale has been linked with a move to Old Trafford in recent weeks, although United manager Jose Mourinho has denied any interest in the Wales international.

Asked about the speculation linking him with a return to England with United and Mourinho rubbishing reports, Bale told Sky Sports: “There you go. I haven’t said anything [on the rumours].”

Lukaku and Bale exchanged words following the 1-1 draw, which United clinched 2-1 on penalties, and the former Tottenham Hotspur star has revealed what he said.

“I just wished him good luck – obviously he’s just signed there,” Bale added.

“I just wished him luck for the season and hope he has a great season.

“He’s been playing long enough, he’s done very well in the Premier League and I’m sure he’ll do great for them.”
