What next for Gareth Bale? Golf career, I'm A Celebrity appearance and Tom Jones duet compared after shock retirement
GARETH BALE shocked the footballing world by bringing the end to his football career with immediate effect.
The ex-Spurs and Wales captain advised his fans and followers he was now set to pursue 'a new adventure'.
The big question now is, what sort of adventure lies ahead?
He's never shied away from his love of golf and that could quite easily be on the cards.
And according to Betfair, the golf nut is most likely to turn his attention to turning professional in the sport at 5/2.
The 33-year-old is 4/1 to remain in the MLS, where he recently played for LAFC, though this time as being an owner of any of the league's sides.
He's then 5/1 to head Down Under later this year as part of I'm A Celebrity.
It's then into double figure prices for Bale to turn his hand to politics, with 10/1 odds that he's elected to the Senedd.
Perhaps more likely, he's 14/1 to join any NFL team as a kicker, fulfilling a role former team-mate Harry Kane has his eye on later in his career.
Could management be on the agenda? He's 25/1 to be Wales' next manager and 50/1 to take over from Antonio Conte at Tottenham.
Amongst those at bigger odds he is 50/1 to make an appearance on Gavin and Stacey.
While you can get 66/1 odds for him to duet with Tom Jones or appear on Dancing On Ice.
