Gareth Bale injury hell continues after limping out of Real Madrid training ahead of Manchester United showdown
Welsh winger has been slated for by Los Blancos supporters for his pre-season performances
GARETH BALE'S injury woes look to have struck again just a week before Real Madrid's Super Cup clash against Manchester United.
The winger limped out of training clearly pointing to his right ankle as he headed off down the tunnel looking frustrated.
He could now be a serious doubt for the highly anticipated clash against Jose Mourinho's men in Macedonia next Tuesday.
The Welsh star has been plagued by a series of injuries over the last 12 months.
Bale was limited to just 17 league starts last season and even started the Champions League final on the bench having failed to prove his match fitness.
The ex-Spurs man has been troubled with a calf injury but he has also had back, knee and ankle issues.
Bale was hoping to kick-start the new season in full fitness but he has received huge criticism for his pre-season performances so far.
He has failed to score a single goal as Real Madrid lost every match in the USA as Los Blancos fans begin to lose patience.
