Gareth Bale's agent has rubbished the suggestion that Real Madrid are considering selling the Welshman in the summer.
Spanish publication AS recently claimed that senior figures within the corridors of the Bernabeu had grown weary of the 26-year-old's injury woes.
According to the outlet, Bale has broken down on 11 separate occasions since his world-record £85m arrival from Tottenham Hotspur in the summer of 2013.
It means that the 26-year-old has featured in just 63% of Madrid's matches during that time.
Even so, Bale's representative has insisted that stories of his client's imminent departure are "completely rubbish".
"It's a completely rubbish story made by an irresponsible and totally ill-informed journalist," Sky Sports News quotes Jonathan Barnett as saying.
Bale is currently sidelined by a calf problem that has kept him out of the last six games in all competitions.
