It has taken some talent to outshine John Charles, and Garet Bale has become the greatest player to emerge from Cymru, and with his pride in his country he has helped put Cymru on the world football map. As a Spanish team won the champions league, the draig goch was ever present at the celebrations, during his time in Madrid.
Bale left Real Madrid with his head held high. He is the greatest most decorated Welsh footballer ever to grace any side.
