Gareth Bale chosen as the best Welsh footballer for the fourth time

Madrid's "Real" star Gareth Bale has once again received recognition in his homeland. Bale was named the best Welsh footballer of 2014. The 25-year-old winger has won this personal title four times in the last five years, surpassing Mark Hughes and John Hartson, who were nominated as the best Welsh footballers three times. In 2013, Bale moved to the Spanish capital for a record 100 million euros and has already won three titles with the royal club - the Champions League, the Spanish League, and the UEFA Cup. "It was a fantastic year. I came to Madrid to win titles, and I managed to do so, so I am very happy," the football star told reporters. In total, Bale scored 27 goals in 56 matches played for "Real" team.
