Gareth Bale's new year started in the most unpleasant way - Madrid's "Real" star suffered another injury.
Since his arrival, Bale has been struggling with constant health issues. In yesterday's match against "Villarreal," he had to leave the game after the first half due to a calf injury.
"Real" has not yet released any official information on the seriousness of the injury, but according to various sources, the footballer will definitely miss the upcoming "La Liga" match against "Real Sociedad" this weekend.
ESPN calculated that since moving to Madrid in 2013, Bale has had 18 injuries. In total, he has already missed 323 days of football due to these injuries.
During Bale's absence due to injuries, the Madrid team has played 65 matches in the last five years.
