Gareth Bale has received a punditry job for the Europa League final from Tottenham against Manchester United.
Spurs travel to Bilbao looking for their first piece of silverware since 2008 – where Bale was part of that League Cup winning side.
The Welsh Tottenham icon withdrew into playing in 2023 behind the Winter World Cup.
And he enjoyed retirement by playing golf, modeling and doing the strange punditry performance for TNT sports.
That will continue tomorrow night after the broadcaster has announced that Bale will be part of their coverage team in Spain – where he spent nine years.
The winger left Spurs for Real Madrid in 2013 in a world record transfer of £ 85 million.
He won three Laliga titles and five Champions League trophies in the Spanish capital.
But his time in Madrid was noted with criticism of his attitude, despite 106 goals in 258 games.
Tottenham plays in their first European final since the defeat of the heart in the Champions League against Liverpool in 2019.
And they were defeated by Manchester City in the final of the League Cup 2021.

In the meantime, United won the Europa League under Jose Mourinho in 2017, but lost to penalties in the 2021 final of Villarreal.
Both Premier League struggles come in horror form in the game with Spurs 17th and United One Place up and without a victory in a club record eight games.
Managers Ange Postecoglou and Ruben Amorim are put under pressure with the European trophy that is seen as a way to soften their nightmare seasons.
