Gareth Bale surprises Wales

Gareth Bale's plan to buy Cardiff City has excited Welsh football fans, who believe it is an opportunity for the country's football to develop and change its fortunes.

Gareth Bale wants to invest in football.

Earlier this week, Bale confirmed that he is leading a group of investors in an ambitious bid to buy Cardiff City, his childhood club. Bale’s goal is to bring the “Bluebirds” back to the Premier League, marking a new chapter in his business and football career after retirement.

Information about Bale's plan to buy Cardiff City was shared publicly for the first time at the premiere of F1 The Movie. This is a rare time for the former Real Madrid player to speak up about his intention to own Cardiff City, a team he has always had a special love for.

Bale has expressed optimism about reaching a deal with Cardiff's current owner, Vincent Tan. Last week, Wales Online reported that Bale's investment group had made a takeover bid for Cardiff City, which was rejected by Tan.

However, Bale's public announcement of the deal suggests the former Real Madrid man is not giving up. "We are very interested in owning Cardiff," Bale said. "It's my hometown club, where I grew up, and my uncle Chris Pike played for them. It would be a dream come true to be part of the ownership group."

Bale expressed his special affection for Cardiff City, a team he considers an inseparable part of his life: "It is a club close to my heart. I want to contribute to the development of Cardiff and return to the Premier League, where the club belongs."

Bale also praised the Cardiff and Wales fans, stressing that it would be “fantastic” to join them in building a bright future for the club. With his vast wealth and business experience, Bale could be the catalyst to turn Cardiff City’s fortunes around.

Cardiff City have declined under billionaire Vincent Tan.

The club endured a disappointing 2024/25 Championship season, which saw them relegated to League One – the third tier of English football. In this difficult context, Bale’s plan offers fans hope of a revival.

Bale, a Welsh football legend, is looking to leave his mark off the pitch after retiring, and Cardiff City could be the starting point for his new legacy. Bale was previously rumoured to be interested in investing in Plymouth Argyle, but the plans never materialised.

In fact, Bale just wants to focus on Cardiff City, focusing on building this team into a future force in the Premier League. Wales currently has only two big football clubs, Swansea and Cardiff. However, these two clubs have declined and have not played in the Premier League for a long time.

Gareth Bale's plan to buy Cardiff City is not just a business deal, but also a story of love for his hometown and a desire to leave a legacy. As a Welsh football icon, Bale is working to make his dream of returning Cardiff to the Premier League come true.

Although the road ahead is full of challenges, Bale's determination and vision have sparked hope for Cardiff City fans.

Atletico Madrid was bitterly eliminated from the Club World Cup. In the early morning of June 24, the La Liga representative beat Botafogo 1-0 but it was not enough to pass the group stage of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025™.
