MADRID: Wales forward Gareth Bale has confirmed on Sunday that he is set to join Major League Soccer side Los Angeles FC when his contract with Real Madrid expires this summer. The forward, a free agent after leaving Real Madrid this summer, had other offers but he has chosen to move to California and the MLS. The Welsh forward is thought to have agreed an initial one-year deal, which includes the option of an 18-month contract extension and will see him join former Italy captain Giorgio Chiellini as part of the LAFC squad.

The Wales captain confirmed his move to LAFC via his official Twitter account.

"See you soon, Los Angeles. @LAFC," Bale wrote on Twitter with a video of him in a club shirt and cap. IANS
