Real Madrid's Gareth Bale Loves Madrid, but He Misses Nando's

Sean SwabyNov 21, 2014

Since his lucrative move from Tottenham Hotspur to Spanish giants Real Madrid, Gareth Bale has settled in nicely in Spain. 

Scoring game-winning goals in the Copa del Rey final and Champions League final tend to have that type of effect. 

But in a long-ranging interview with Charlie Parrish of The Telegraph, Bale has revealed one thing he does astutely miss about life in England: Nando's. No, really.

After waxing about tapas and Madrid restaurant Txistu, where he only seldom has to pick up his own bill, he reveals his love for the English staple (among a few others). 

"Some good old British chocolate never goes amiss," he said. "A bit of Dairy Milk or Galaxy is fantastic—they have Milka here and it's not the same. Oh, and Nando's! I do miss a bit of Nando's. It's funny; it's those tiny things you miss. We'll bring English teabags over with us, and the chocolate. I can't really move Nando's over, though, unfortunately." 

So there you have it, Tottenham fans, if there's ever an opportunity to woo the Welsh wizard back to England, the sell may be in the flame-grilled chicken. 

There's other English aspects that haven't left him, he also reveals. 

"I still want Arsenal to lose and Spurs to win."
