#1 Gareth Bale
After the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo, it was expected that Gareth Bale would fill the void. But Bale endured another poor campaign, riddled with inconsistency and injuries. Instead of stepping up and performing well, Bale went through one of the worst phases in his Madrid career.
Bale failed to impress under any of the three coaches in the 2018/19 season with his performances. The 29-year-old bagged 14 goals and 6 assists in all competitions and his campaign was filled with inconsistency and injuries. It goes without saying that his performances were far below the expectations of Madrid's board.
Moreover, Bale's huge wage is a major obstacle for the Spanish giants. They already spent huge money to secure the signing of stars like Hazard and Jovic. If reports are to be believed, Madrid hierarchy wants to get rid of the Welshman at any cost.
