MADRID (Reuters) - Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane has confirmed Gareth Bale is out of Saturday's La Liga match at home to Espanyol after he sustained yet another muscle injury but said he did not think the player could do anything more to ease his fitness problems.
Bale has missed 77 games due to injury since signing for Real Madrid from Tottenham Hotspur for a then world record fee of 100 million euros ($110 million) and suffered his latest setback in last week's 2-1 win at Alaves, his first start in two months.
