Real Madrid star Gareth Bale has again been pictured leaving a match early when he was caught on camera exiting the win over Leganes before the final whistle on Wednesday night.

The Welshman was not part of Zinedine Zidane's match day squad but was in attendance to watch the action at the Bernabeu.

However, with just 10 minutes to go during his side's 5-0 win, Bale slipped away and was caught on camera departing the stadium before the full-time whistle.

His exit does not breach the club's rules that state if players are at games they cannot leave before the 80th minute. If they do, they are fined.

After the game Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane was asked about Bale's early exit and he replied: "I spoke to him in the dressing room. If he left early, it's because he has permission to do so."
