Wales star Gareth Bale is preparing to play next season as he ponders his future.

The winger was not at his best at the World Cup, with his country bundled out of the group stages.

Many felt that Bale would retire, as he had achieved all he could manage in the game.

However, the Mirror now states that he wants to stay in the MLS with Los Angeles FC for next season.

Bale admits he was not fully fit last season, and now wants to focus on LAFC and giving his best to the club that gave him a chance to play football last season.
