Fully fit and raring to go: Bale trains ahead of Bernabeu bow in Madrid derby


Gareth Bale has been training with his Real Madrid team-mates ahead of his Bernabeu bow on Saturday night.
The £86million world record signing was forced to sit out Tuesday night's 2-1 win over Elche with a thigh strain picked up in training.

But manager Carlo Ancelotti confirmed in midweek that Bale would be fit to play in the Madrid derby against arch rivals Atletico.

Bale's only two previous appearances for Real have come away from home against Villarreal and Galatasaray.

He scored on his debut in the 2-2 draw at Villarreal and came off the bench in the 6-1 Champions League win in Turkey.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Co were all in attendance on Friday as Real geared up for the crunch clash against Diego Simeone's side.
