Bale enjoying life in Madrid after slow start

Gareth Bale has said he is relishing life at Real Madrid now he is clear of the niggling injuries that blighted his start to life in the Spanish capital.

Bale, who cost Real a reported 91 million euros ($123 million) back in September, spent nearly a month on the sidelines due to a thigh problem.

However, he has made a blistering return to form in the past month with three goals and five assists in his past four games.
