GARETH BALE remains a doubt for Real Madrid's trip to Tottenham next month.
Los Blancos travel to Wembley on November 1 after a thrilling 1-1 draw at the Bernabeu. But boss Zinedine Zidane admits Bale, 28, may not be available as he fights back from injury.
He said: "Bale is already on the field, almost ready to train with the team, but I can't give you a date for when he'll be back."
Earlier this week Bale shared a video of himself returning to solo training - raising hopes he would be available to face his former club.
But having been out since suffering a calf injury after scoring a stunner against Dortmund last month, he faces a race against time to be fit. Madrid play Girona in La Liga on Sunday and there are fears the Catalan independence debate could lead to trouble.
But Zidane refused to discuss the situation - insisting he was confident security measures would be sufficient.
He added: "We are just going to play a game of football. "We are going to have security there, as always. We just think about preparing for the game, not about what can happen outside.
"Other coaches can talk about whatever they wish to. He [Guardiola] sees the chance to speak. But here [with the media] I just like to talk about football."
