Gareth Bale told offer ‘still on the table’ by Rob McElhenney as Wrexham owner jokes Wales golf courses are ‘beautiful’

GARETH BALE has been told Wrexham’s transfer offer is still on the table by co-owner Rob McElhenney.

Wales icon Bale, 34, retired last year after his spell in the MLS with Los Angeles FC.

McElhenney sent a tweet to the former Tottenham and Real Madrid forward trying to convince him to come out of retirement.

And speaking at the MLB’s London Series at West Ham today, the Wrexham owner made another case to Bale.

He said: “Gareth Bale is still technically available!

“I made the plea last year and I’m just going to tell Gareth that the offer’s still on the table.

“We’ll let you off for golf, whenever you need to get off.

“As long as you come to training once or twice a week we can figure out how to get you ten minutes on the pitch.”

Last year McElhenney tweeted Bale challenging him to a round of golf.

The Hollywood star joked: “Hey Gareth Bale let’s play golf, where I totally won’t spend 4 hours trying to convince you to un-retire for one last magical season.”

In response, Bale teased: “Depends what course.”

McElhenney threw a ceremonial first pitch at the New York Mets vs Philadelphia Philles game at the London Stadium today.

The movie star is from Philadelphia and accepted a call from Phillies legend Chase Utley to try and promote baseball in the UK.

His Wrexham team have earned back-to-back promotions from the National League into League One, and have even higher ambitions.

McElhenney said: “It’s never been done in the history of English football when a team’s gone back-to-back-to-back.

“So that’s what we’re talking about now in the very short off season, seeing how we can maybe get it done again next year.”

And McElhenney is set to visit his team in Wales this week to discuss transfers, including the future of Arthur Okonkwo.

The Arsenal goalkeeper spent last season on loan with Phil Parkinson’s team but was then released.

And McElhenney revealed: “We’re talking to Arthur actively right now.

“We know he wants to come back to Wrexham and we definitely want him, so it’s just about working out the right deal that works for everybody.”
