Gareth Bale: It looks like it is time for ‘One Last Dance’ for the Welsh legend, Gareth Bale. The ex-Real Madrid winger decided to retire from football altogether early in 2023 and it has come after a lot of deliberation from his end. But now, all that might be about to change. One of the Wrexham owners, Rob McElhenney has made an ambitious transfer approach for Gareth Bale to come out of retirement to play for Wrexham. Follow Football LIVE Updates on InsideSport.IN

After representing his nation at the World Cup in Qatar, the Welsh star announced his retirement from the sport earlier this year. Bale, 33, took some time to congratulate McElhenney on Wrexham’s promotion and is obviously relishing his retirement.
Bale put up a short video, wherein he congratulated Rob on Wrexham’s promotion this season. Bale said, ‘Hi Rob, just want to congratulate you on your promotion and everything you’re doing at Wrexham.’
In response, McElhenney posted the clip to his Twitter account, alongside a cheeky message. The owner of Wrexham said, ‘Hey @GarethBale11 let’s play golf, where I totally won’t spend 4 hours trying to convince you to un-retire for one last magical season 🏴 🏴 🏴 🏴 ❤️’

With 14 appearances and three goals with LAFC in the MLS, Bale completed his club career. Later, he scored for Wales in their 1-1 World Cup draw with the USA.
Ben Foster in Wrexham
One former Premier League player has already agreed to play for Wrexham this year after coming out of retirement. The freshly crowned National League champions added Ben Foster to their roster before the final stretch, and the former England goalie was crucial in helping them win.
The highlight for Foster was undoubtedly the last-second penalty stop against title contender Notts County that ended the game. When their team won the championship last weekend, McElhenney and co-owner Ryan Reynolds were overcome with emotion.

The former was spotted crying as ecstatic Wrexham supporters swarmed the field. Because of their deeds, supporters have dubbed Reynolds and McElhenney the “best owners in football.” Wrexham have been on the charge ever since they were bought by the Hollywood duo of Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney.
Now that Wrexham have secured promotion back to League Two from the National League, they will need to start planning for the way ahead. In League Two, they will face much stiffer competition every week and will need to be on their toes. Getting Gareth Bale would be a huge boost for the side, but that should just be the start for them. A couple more smart recruitments will set them on their way.
