REAL MADRID superstar Gareth Bale is facing a fresh blow after suffering yet another hamstring injury.
Spanish newspaper AS claims the Welsh wizard broke down in training today and could be out of action for another month.
Bale is yet to make an appearance for Real since late September, and the new setback is sure to cast further doubt over his long-term future at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Real have since released a statement, which read: "Our player, Gareth Bale, who felt some discomfort in his left leg at the end of training on Thursday, has been the subject of tests on Friday.
"He has been diagnosed with a tear in the hamstring."
It means Zinedine Zidane will have to play through December without Real's club-record signing. Fans have been desperate to see Bale reunite with Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema in attack following the club's slow start to the campaign.
But the Welshman is now unlikely to feature until after the winter break, and is far from guaranteed a spot back in the starting XI following some big performances from Isco and Marco Asensio. Bale had only just returned to training after spending five weeks on the sidelines with a calf injury.
He did not link up with Chris Coleman's Wales squad for upcoming friendlies against France and Panama, and will now be hoping for no further setbacks.
