Cardiff City striker Craig Bellamy feels it's too soon to talk about Tottenham star Gareth Bale as a world great.

Bellamy is a big fan of his Wales teammate.

But told the London Evening Standard: "He is an exceptional footballer who is really excelling. He's a natural athlete, an all-round incredible, intelligent footballer who could play in any position. Will he get better? I don't know. He's still only 23. Who knows what will happen in the next couple of years."
