Gareth Bale 'prefers' right wing

Real Madrid attacker Gareth Bale has revealed that his favoured position is right wing.

The Welshman, who moved to Madrid from Tottenham Hotspur last summer, has been deployed on both wings for his new club this season.

However, the 24-year-old has claimed that he is more suited to the right side of the pitch.

"Last season with Tottenham I didn't play as much on the left, I was playing more down the middle or on the right – like with Wales," he told AS.

"I feel comfortable playing on the right wing, I'm happy there."

Bale has scored 14 times in 30 games for Los Blancos this campaign.
