Gareth Bale insisted that he and Ronaldo got along during their time together at Real Madrid.

"Cristiano is an incredible player, I thoroughly enjoyed playing with him. Obviously the media try and hype up these problems which were never there. We got on really well," said Bale.

Bale added that he has no regrets leaving Tottenham despite struggling in Spain.

"I appreciated everything Tottenham had done for me but I think they did understand at the time that when such a big club comes in for you like Real Madrid it is difficult to turn them down. Even though I was enjoying my time at Tottenham, loved the club and I still do, to have Real Madrid come for you, you'll regret saying no."
