Gareth Bale's departure from Real Madrid was expected; it has seemed to be a long time coming. Just three years ago, he scored one of the most famous goals in champions league history, Real Madrid's Champions League Triumph against Liverpool. Ever since then, Real Madrid and Gareth Bale have been at wit's end. Despite winning 16 trophies with Real Madrid and scoring 106 goals, his time at the Santiago Bernabeu seems to end in the last couple of years. Both parties have played an influence on the downfall of the relationship. Real Madrid was aware that Gareth Bale wasn't in their plans in the future yet failed to find a solution to getting him off their books. They sent him on loan to Tottenham Hotspur a breakout season with 16 goals returned to Real Madrid and was mutually unused. The Welshman is seemingly being mistreated despite the influence he has had on Champions League victories. Meanwhile, being a somewhat decisive, Gareth Bale went through injury concerns while not helping himself with his performances and his attitude toward a Real Madrid team that continually hunts for trophies. Despite his treatment at Real Madrid, Gareth Bale hasn't put forward the best effort when wearing the Real Madrid shirt. The infamous flag listing his priorities Wales Golf and Real Madrid in that order. It has been somewhat of a toxic relationship at the end as Gareth Bale gives everything for his national team and gives hardly anything for Real Madrid. The Welshman has been unfairly treated by fans at the Santiago Bernabeu but hasn't helped himself with his effort and his performances, at least At The Bitter End. This situation was always heading towards a divorce; it is a complicated yet somewhat sad situation. The departure of Gareth Bale is something that the player needed and something that the club needed to do; in hindsight, years from now this will be probably the tagline of his experience at Real Madrid. Both Gareth Bale and Real Madrid hold responsibility for how this ultimately ended. The goals he scored in the Champions League finals will never be forgotten, but the relationship, in the end, prevented Gareth Bale from getting the departure and farewell that he deserved. He is Britain's biggest export with 106 goals and 16 trophies the most successful player from the UK to thrive in foreign lands on the back of his big-game performances, at least in the prime of his Real Madrid career, certified himself as a club Legend even if it got sour at the end he has been an influence of one of the most historic Real Madrid sides of all time. Eventually, his contract winds down, allowing him to leave the club after many years for free. It did turn out to be a messy exit, but what he did for Real Madrid will never be forgotten Even though it was a messy end the club referred to him as a club legend in their farewell to the Welsh star. Upon his contract expiring at Real Madrid, three clubs showed an interest in signing the 32-year-old. Staying in La Liga with Getafe, a return to Wales with Cardiff City as, well as Coming To America with an offer from The City of Angels. Many superstars had come from Europe and come to America; in the end, it was an unexpected opportunity to follow the footsteps of Ibrahimovic Chicharito and David Beckham. Fabrizio Romano announced last week that Gareth Bale would be arriving in a city of stars in Los Angeles lafc on a one-year deal option of extending it further. Lafc is the least successful Los Angeles team in the MLS with no trophies or finals despite having unlimited resources in one of the best-assembled squads in the United States. Seemingly in need of a player is a proven winner that can help lafc launch take that next step. They have been very active this summer. Extending the contract of Carlos Vela, signing experienced Italian Legend Giorgio Chiellini and now the acquisition of Gareth Bale. Gareth Bale is LA bound with an opportunity to have a bigger influence in this city than Ibrahimovic. He's doubtful to capture the essence of David Beckham when he arrived in LA there's no question about it lafc made a huge Splash bigger than Lorenzo insigne to Toronto in a deal that could be significantly historic in terms of global stardom and in terms of success could be the signing finally see lafc get over the hump challenge for an MLS Cup Gareth Bale has arrived welcome to Hollywood as LAFC secure a 5-time champions league winner.

LAFC MLS Underachievers needs Bale: A Proven Winner

Los Angeles FC has been the biggest Underachievers and choke artists in Major League Soccer. Lafc became a new expansion team in 2018. When they entered Major League Soccer, they made high-profile signings and invested a lot of money with their new celebrity Carousel ownership. Some of the names Associated with Mia Hamm Magic Johnson, Will Ferrell, and so many more. Los Angeles FC had so much Financial backing, and investment allowing them to go after top players bringing them to Los Angeles in the hopes of building a winning culture that could see the new look La team rival the consistent winners and the most successful team in the history of Major League Soccer LA Galaxy when Los Angeles FC arrive in Major League Soccer LA Galaxy was fading. Still, historically they have shown the consistency that has made them such a force in the MLS it was the perfect time to build something special that could take the culture that was created across town. Despite the influence in money, LA Galaxy still holds a great deal of reputation, allowing them to have a leg up when approaching European Stars in hopes of bringing names to America. The likes of Ibrahimovic, the dos Santos Brothers, and many other names have opted for LA Galaxy, even if they have not won for a long time. Even despite this, they've been able to land Superstars very incredible investments and pull they have being the new team in LA Carlos Vela nearly a decade in La Liga with Real Sociedad they pursued him in prime as he was convinced to make a move to LAFC He has consistently been one of the best players in the league regularly putting up ridiculous numbers season in and season out. They were able to build a super team, one of the most exciting sides in the MLS, with the squad to go and win big trophies. However, despite all the money backing and recruitment falling on their face far too often. With their incredibly super talented Squad with some of the best players Major League Soccer has to offer. This last season they missed the playoffs and finished ninth in the league. Despite everything they have because of their wealthy owners falling shirt short repeatedly, it is unacceptable; they made the Conference Final one time. They have underachieved practically every season they have been in existence, become a point taking them seriously is questioned due to past history. They have to fulfill their expectations; they are choke artists who have had difficulty handling the pressure and coming up big when it matters.

Bale’s Trophy Cabinet and Moments: Will gain Respect immediately

The acquisition of Gareth Bale could change all of that. Los Angeles FC takes an aggressive approach once again with the money that they have to spend; what they have done is brought in the winners that have won things at the peak of the game, getting them to Los Angeles to help them get over the hump and win something significant. They brought in one of the greatest Defenders of Our Generation even though 37 years, Giorgio Chiellini has won nine League titles, been to two Champions League finals is a European Champion with Italy. Even though he probably doesn't have a lot of years left, he has winning intangibles and a mentality that alone can be very influential on this team that need to be taught how to win at the very top. However, the acquisition and arrival of Gareth Bale is one of the biggest moves in MLS history not only for what he can potentially bring to the team but also from a branding perspective huge star meant to play in Los Angeles. The arrival of Lorenzo insigne in Toronto crosses as a significant deal; he's still in his prime, but Toronto FC are winners; they have won the MLS Cup, they have won the US Open cup, and no disrespect to Lorenzo insigne a, but he won a few trophies in his career regardless of what you think of Gareth Bale he has a resume on a level of very few people in football history his trophy cabinet is insane and undeniable for what he has achieved in the game. What Los Angeles FC need is a proven winner to show them the way they are sick and tired of everyone describing them as choke artist and saying they don't have what it takes; there are no questioning LAFC has had the squad ever since the beginning but ultimately under pressure, when everything is in their favor they have collapsed. Gareth Bale has been brought in to change all of that. We can talk about the health concerns and the lack of games played the last two years at Real Madrid, but Gareth Bale is a proven winner. Gareth Bale has collected 16 trophies at Real Madrid League titles an astounding five champions leagues; we can talk about the fracturing of the relationship between Gareth Bale and Real Madrid, but he scored in two of those finals and scored arguably one of the most famous goals in champions league history his overhead kick against Liverpool in the 2018 final was one of greatest goals ever witnessed in the history of the game. His resume speaks for itself as a part of what he has contributed to his a part of the Real Madrid 3 peat. He has only just turned 32 and still has a lot to give to a Los Angeles FC team that doesn't know the feeling of winning at the highest level. Gareth Bale will be a positive influence on the team as a whole, given what he has accomplished; he will be given respect immediately; they brought in a proven winner that will be able to have incredible influence while still having a ton to offer Gareth Bale is just a winner done it at every level beyond what he will provide on the pitch just mentally and his presence alone will make a big difference.

Gareth Bale’s Scoring Ability: He Will Rip This League Apart

Gareth Bale is a proven winner with 16 trophies with Real Madrid; as far as a star standpoint, he brings the personality and The Branding of an LA Star; however, this isn't the ideology of the move they're bringing in Gareth Bale to win titles in la. Make no mistake about it, there are certainly other elements that go into this deal and that will help Los Angeles from a building and business standpoint; he's a winner, but what he will do on the pitch with Los Angeles FC will be a breathtaking experience in a vast entrance to Major League Soccer. There are certain things to be cautious about when discussing Gareth Bale regarding his health and his motivations regarding whether a move to LA will get Gareth Bale back to the proper headspace allowing him to return to his best. All fair questions, but Gareth Bale, a capable goal scorer in Major League Soccer, could explode and become a high-volume goal scorer. In his last two seasons at Real Madrid, he wasn't truly given a chance in a real way; his numbers at the Santiago Bernabeu weren't great as he scored under 10 goals in those last two seasons, but as I mentioned, that's essentially down to lack of opportunities and a strange relationship with the club. However, last season he went on loan going back to Spurs; he unloaded the clip scoring 16 goals in all competitions while on loan. He insisted that he would go back to Real Madrid, where he was used very little; however, the experience at Spurs proves that he has it in him to score goals. Despite everything that happened at Real Madrid, he is still Britain's greatest export, with 106 goals and 67 Assists with Real Madrid; during his time in Spain, in his 8 years at Real Madrid, he scored 15 or more goals on four different occasions. His first three years at Real Madrid were magical 22, 17, and 19 goals; during his first three seasons, he also scored 21 goals in 2018, two of which came in the Champions League final against Liverpool. Although he wasn't looked at as important the following season, he still went for 14 goals in his last two seasons at Real Madrid; he only appeared in 27 games scoring four goals; however, when he was picked and when he was relied on, he delivered on the biggest stages in the biggest games for real Madrid. There's no reason to believe he can't come to the MLS and rip it to shreds. The MLS is a substantially less advanced League than La Liga, not even half the quality he has gone up against in Spain. Major League Soccer has significantly improved but remains quite behind the remainder of Europe; this will bode well for Gareth Bale to enter America in LA and dominate. Suppose we want to go back even further. In that case, we can the year before he went to Real Madrid for 100 million, he ripped apart the Premier League with 26 goals in all competitions, one of the most electric Premier League seasons of all time with 60 goals in England, 106 goals in Spain, and 40 goals in 106 games for Wales which includes 11 goals in nine helping them qualify for Euro 2016 Gareth Bale was magical as they made the semi-final in Euro 2020 Last Summer he was electric again getting them to the quarterfinals they didn't qualify for the World Cup in 2018 but in 2022 Wales on the back of Gareth Bale he lifted them to the World Cup in Qatar as he will be leading the line for his country in the group that features Iran the United States and England. He has scored on the big stages for club and Country; he is still incredibly explosive and will be a superstar Edition to the MLS. He goes into his career in America as arguably already the best player in the Major League, and we could see Gareth Bale put up ridiculous numbers; he is a 20 goal 10 assist player in the MLS; he will be a star attraction with everything in his capabilities to win the MLS Cup with Los Angeles FC they may be known as chokers right now but with the addition to Gareth Bale that could very soon change. With Carlos Vela on one side and Gareth Bale on the other, it could become quite antagonizing for the opposition. Gareth Bale will come to the MLS and be box office immediately.
