Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane has provided the latest update on Gareth Bale's injury, and the entire squad in general. The French manager was speaking to journalists ahead of their postponed clash with Celta Vigo in La Liga.
The match was cancelled after heavy winds destroyed a section of the roof at the Balaidos, posing security concerns. Meanwhile, the Champions League-winning manager believes that he will have a full-squad by next week - minus Bale, who is nearing his return from injury.

He also added that the ex-Spurs man is responding positively to his recovering problem and may need just a 'couple of days' to return to full-fitness. The star winger should be able to play in the Champions League against Napoli, but Zidane will not rush him. He could also feature in Wales' World Cup qualifier against Ireland on March 24.
