Isco and
Asier Illarramendi, the feel from the Madrid camp is Bale will have to earn his spot in the squad. The former Spurs star scored 21 goals last season for the London club before moving to Madrid on

"Communication is everything - you have to instruct and organise. It's up to Gareth to learn. A lot of players start having lessons at the club when they arrive. Luka Modric, who played with Gareth at Tottenham, had some lessons initially - he speaks in Spanish and English with the players," he said. "I'm sure Gareth will do the same. He spoke some lines during the news conference. It's a great life quality if he knuckles down and learns. Our communication with the team as a whole will be in Spanish."
