Gareth Bale's current situation is proving to be a pain in the neck for all parties concerned. Zinedine Zidane, talking to the press ahead of the Blancos' International Champions Cup matchup against Bayern Munich, maintained that the Welshman is not a problem even though the situation hasn't really changed since June.

Zizou said,

"He's not a problem, I'm not going to say that a player is a problem/ Anything could happen. He has a contract, we'll see. Nothing at all has changed with respect to Bale between June and now."
"He is a Real Madrid player right now and we'll see what happens. He is on holiday at the moment and I can't say more."

Zidane gave another vague reply when asked about the potential signing of Paul Pogba. He said,

"The club know what we want and there is time ahead. Right now we are focussed on these matches. We'll see what happens."
