kaleemLa Liga is arguably the most exciting league to watch in world football. That’s not just because it has more goals than any other league, but also because of its star players like Bale and Thiago Alcantara. Between them, these two players could be set for a reunion at Real Madrid if their current form continues.
Playing alongside Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema, Gareth Bale has made headlines throughout his career.
Since joining Real Madrid in 2013, Gareth Bale has been playing alongside Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema. The Welshman has scored over 100 goals for Los Blancos and was their top scorer last season with 36 goals.
The only player to have scored in every competition for Real Madrid (La Liga, Champions League and Copa del Rey), Bale has also made headlines off-the-pitch due to his relationship with pop star Kim Kardashian West who he married in 2014 after dating her for just three months!
The Welshman has broken a number of records throughout his time at Real Madrid.
Bale is the only player to score in the UEFA Champions League final, UEFA Super Cup, UEFA Europa League final and UEFA Super Cup. He is also the only player to score in the Copa del Rey final and UEFA Super Cup.
The Welshman has broken a number of records throughout his time at Real Madrid including:
- Most goals by a British player in La Liga (89) – surpassing Gary Lineker’s previous record of 80 goals for Barcelona between 1986-89;
- Most assists by any foreign player in La Liga (18) – beating Luis Enrique’s former record of 17 set during his spell with Valencia from 1995-97;* Most appearances by any foreign player for one club in Spain without ever being substituted off or subbed on (280);
However, it’s not just the former Tottenham Hotspur star who is making waves in La Liga – his countryman and Real Madrid teammate, Thiago Alcantara is also making an impression.

Thiago was born in Spain but moved to Germany at a young age with his family when they were offered jobs at Bayern Munich by then-manager Louis van Gaal. He made his debut for the Bavarian club during the 2010/11 season before moving back to Barcelona on loan for two seasons where he won two La Liga titles as well as playing an integral role in their Champions League victory over Manchester United at Wembley Stadium in 2011/12.
Since returning from Catalonia he has established himself as one of Europe’s top midfielders having won four Bundesliga titles since joining Bayer Leverkusen initially on loan before making that move permanent in 2013/14. He also spent time away from Germany during these years too; playing for Spain’s Under-21 side at both Euro 2012 and London 2012 Olympics where he helped them win silverware both times!
While the 25-year-old may not have been able to replicate the success of his Manchester United days, he has been key for Santiago Solari’s side this season.

Thiago Silva has scored 4 goals and provided 5 assists in all competitions this season, making him one of Real Madrid’s best performers this term. Some of Europe’s biggest clubs are interested in signing the midfielder at the end of the season, but Bale is hoping he can convince him to join Spurs instead!
In 13 La Liga appearances this season the Spaniard has scored four goals and provided five assists from midfield.

Thiago is an important player for Real Madrid, he’s their first choice midfielder and has been a key player in their good form this season. The creative midfielder has played in all 13 games so far, showing his importance to Zidane’s side as they look to win another Champions League title this year after winning it last season against Liverpool FC on penalties at Olimpiyskiy National Sports Complex Stadium in Kyiv Ukraine on May 26th 2019
This form hasn’t gone unnoticed with various reports claiming that some of Europe’s biggest clubs are interested in signing him (via Bild).
If you’re not familiar with Thiago, he’s a midfielder who plays for Real Madrid. He’s 25 years old and from Spain. In fact, he is one of the biggest football stars in Europe right now after moving from Manchester United to Real Madrid back in 2014.
He has been linked with some big clubs this summer including Bayern Munich (via Bild) but nothing has materialized yet as far as we know – although there are rumors that Barcelona could be interested in bringing him back home!
Real Madrid could be getting a bargain if they keep hold of Thiago Alcantara
For those who don’t know, Thiago Alcantara is a quality midfielder who can play in any position in midfield. He is one of the best midfielders in the world and has been linked with Real Madrid since his days at Barcelona. This season he has shown why he should be considered as one of the best players in world football.
Thiago is good on set pieces and has an excellent left foot which makes him a great option for corners or free kicks. He also posseses excellent passing ability so if you need someone to pass your ball into space then he would be perfect for you!
Conclusion
If Real Madrid can hold on to Thiago Alcantara, it would be a huge boost for their midfield. The Spaniard has been in great form this season and could provide Bale with the perfect partner in crime. However, if another club comes calling then there’s no doubt that Los Blancos will have trouble keeping hold of their star man given how much money they spend on transfers every year
