The treatment of Gareth Bale by Real Madrid fans is "nothing short of a disgrace", according to his agent, reports BBC Sport.

Sections of the Bernabeu crowd jeered the Wales forward when he was substituted after 61 minutes of Saturday's 1-0 defeat by Barcelona.

"This generation of Real fans will be talking about Gareth's goals for years to come," said the 29-year-old's representative, Jonathan Barnett.

"Frankly, they should be ashamed of themselves."

He has scored 13 goals in 33 club games this season but, despite being under contract until June 2022, his future at the Bernabeu has been a talking point in recent weeks.

"Gareth deserves the greatest of respect. The way Real fans have treated him is nothing short of a disgrace," Barnett added.

"We're fed up of fake stories that he's leaving."
