This year, AMD has taken the world by storm with its new Ryzen 4000 APUs, introducing Zen 2 based on 7nm to mobile has helped to bring superior performance coupled with efficiency to laptops. More and more people are opting for AMD for its strong CPU performance and iGPU benefits.
There have been quite a few laptops (daily use or productivity based) launched in India with these revolutionary processors. This is mainly because of the fact that AMD has been facing chip shortage from TSMC on a global scale and it did admit the situation will be resolved soon and we will see more such laptops in India.
As for now there are 8 recommendable laptops available in the Indian market, and I know some of them are overpriced, going out of stock and much more issues are there with them but as I had to make a list for your benefit, I am listing down in a chronological sequence:
8. Asus VivoBook 14
Price: starts at ₹ 55,591
Asus has launched the new VivoBook 14 which is a cut-down version of the previous two laptops mentioned. However, the biggest positivity of the laptop is the price, at just ₹55,591 you are getting an eight-core Ryzen 7 4700U processor which is incredible value for the money.
Essentially, if you wanted to have a great budget laptop with a lot of horsepowers, then this is it, a laptop with such specs at the pricing is just beyond expectation. It’s almost similar to both the VivoBook S14 and VivoBook Flip 14 in terms of design and builds while the display has been downgraded on this ASUS VivoBook 14 M413IA along with the battery.
It has almost the same chassis to the VivoBook Flip 14 and features a 4-sided NanoEdge display with up to 85% screen-to-body ratio, exactly the same display cutout to the Flip 14. But, this FHD display has a brightness of only 200 nits but has an anti-glare screen, which is still good, however, this is not a laptop to carry outdoors, if you want one better go for the VivoBook S14 or ZenBook 14 and the color accuracy of 45% NTSC is low as well.
On the performance front, almost no compromise has been made compared to its costlier brothers as you get both the 6-core AMD Ryzen 5 4500U and 8-core AMD Ryzen 7 4700U processors, so if you are seeking performance this is what you need. Only the Ryzen 7 variant is spotted as for now, I hope soon the Ryzen 5 variant will also be available at less than Rs. 50k maybe.
Also, the RAM is similar to the VivoBook Flip 14 with 8 GB DDR4 3200MHz but when it comes to RAM upgradeability, it is soldered and there are no expansion slots much like the VivoBook S14 and ZenBook 14. However, for the price, you still get 512GB PCIe NVMe 3.0 x2 M.2 SSD along with one additional M.2 slot for storage expansion.
Much like the other VivoBooks mentioned earlier, this one too has the same full-size backlit keyboard with a colored Enter button and comes with 1.4mm key travel which is good enough for daily work. It weighs just 1.40 kg and is very sleek (19.1 mm) as well.
The laptop has a 42 Wh 3-cell lithium-polymer battery, similar to the VivoBook Flip 14 while a cut down to the VivoBook S14, but still good enough to last you for 5-6 hours with normal usage. The ASUS VivoBook 14 M413IA features a USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C and two USB 2.0 Type-A ports, an HDMI port, and even a microSD card slot. It features a 720p HD camera along with Intel WiFi 6 & Bluetooth 5.0 for connectivity.
Overall this laptop is a balanced budget laptop with the main focus remaining on the performance that it offers and the price at which it is coming in. The laptop is available in Bespoke Black / Dreamy White color variants on Flipkart for ₹55,591: http://fkrt.it/EnmBlCNNNN
7.Lenovo Flex 5 2-in-1 laptop
Price: starts at ₹ 58,990
The Lenovo Flex 5 14-inch features the AMD Ryzen 5 4500U which comes with 6 Zen 2 cores running at 2.3 GHz base clock speed and up to 4.0 GHz boost clock speed. It is coupled with 16 GB DDR4 RAM & 256 GB SSD storage.
Lenovo promises up to 10 hours of battery life along with quick charge support that can charge up to 80% in just 1 hour with the 65W adapter, which indeed is great for a budget notebook.
The Lenovo Flex 5 14-inch 2-in-1 Laptop features a 10-point, 14-inch FHD (1920 x 1080) IPS touchscreen with narrow bezels on 4 sides of the display gives you more viewing area and less clutter to interfere with the task at hand. Also, note that the laptop comes with just 250 nits of peak brightness.
The laptop is very thin and light weighing just 1.6 Kg and AMD Radeon Vega 6 graphics with 6 CUs and 1500 MHz graphics frequency make it ideal for productivity purposes as well as gaming. Its 360° hinge lets you use your 2-in-1 touchscreen laptop in whatever mode works best for you.
The Lenovo Flex 5 features 2 x 2W Speakers with Dolby Audio support and includes a physical privacy shutter on the HD 720p camera with Fixed-Focus CMOS. For connectivity, you have 2×2 Wi-Fi 5 (802.11 ac) and Bluetooth 4.2 options, for ports we have 2 USB-A, 1 USB Type-C, and an HDMI port.
Even though it has a plastic body it still looks and feels good, the keyboard is still very decent for a budget laptop and it still has a backlit one as well. It comes with a Lenovo Active Pen included which makes things easier and helps in your daily life as well, it has a privacy shutter on the webcam for security along with a physical fingerprint reader.
The 2-in-1 laptop features a bold Bespoke Black all-metal chassis with diamond-cut edges, a recessed lid logo, a unique color-blocked Enter key with bright yellow edges and text, and a diamond-cut lid that makes it easy to flip open the lid.
It features a 14-inch LED-backlit Full HD (1920 x 1080) display with a 16:9 aspect ratio, covering 60% of sRGB color gamut and 82% screen-to-body ratio. For a more color-accurate display go with the Asus ZenBook 14 with these same AMD Ryzen 4000 APUs.
You get 3 options in terms of the APUs: the AMD Ryzen 3 4300U, Ryzen 5 4500U, and Ryzen 7 4700U with 4, 6, and 8 cores respectively and without SMT but includes the integrated Vega graphics.
The integrated AMD Radeon graphics is strong enough for a basic photo or 4K video editing and even light gaming as well. Asus also says that all of the all models of VivoBook Flip 14 feature keycaps that are larger than average, for comfortable and accurate input. On top of that, the MyASUS software helps you seamlessly integrate the VivoBook Flip 14 with mobile devices that lets you use features like wireless file & URL transfers and Remote File Access as well.
The laptop can be configured with up to 8GB of 3200 MHz DDR4 RAM along with 256GB / 512GB SSD options. Another good thing is that the RAM is upgradeable up to 12GB using a SO-DIMM slot, which I feel is a great headroom for those who intend to use the laptop for the long-term.
It features a full-size backlit keyboard with 1.4mm key travel along with an HD webcam. On the connectivity front, you get Intel WiFi 6 and Bluetooth 5.0 support. For ports we have 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C, 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A, 1 x USB 2.0, 1 x HDMI, 1 x Audio combo jack, 1 x MicroSD card reader, 1 x Kensington lock and a DC-in port.
The laptop comes equipped with 3-cells 50Wh lithium-polymer battery which shall give you a decent amount of battery life along with fast charging support that lets you charge up to 60% in 49 minutes. The VivoBook Flip 14 (TM420) is also durable because Asus says they have included a precision-engineered stepless 360° metal hinge that is tested to pass a 20,000-cycle open-and-close test.
Even though the launch price is ₹ 49,990, the base variant has been selling at ₹ 54,990, here are all of the links of the three variants available:
If you were looking for a thin and light laptop with the latest AMD APUs then Acer Swift 3 will serve your purpose. It features a 14-inch IPS LED-backlit TFT LCD Full HD display with 1920 x 1080 resolution with 82.73% screen to body ratio. The laptop has slim bezels and it weighs just 1.2 kg along with just 15.9 mm thickness.
It features the 6 core and 6 threaded AMD Ryzen 5 4500U APU with 2.3GHz base clock speed and up to 4.0 GHz boost clock speeds. It is an ideal APU for light to medium end workloads and can well be used for professional works like coding, video editing, and other tasks as well.
With the integrated Vega 6 iGPU clocked at 1500 MHz, you can handle most of the graphical with ease, better than an MX230 dedicated GPU, also can handle casual 1080p gaming at low settings. The laptop also features a faster 8GB LDRR4 RAM which is great for a Ryzen system with integrated Vega graphics.
Also, it comes with fast 512 GB PCIe Gen3 NVMe SSD for faster boot speeds and overall performance. For connectivity, it’s great to see Acer including Wi-Fi 6 AX200 support and Bluetooth 5.0 along with an HD webcam that features Super high dynamic range imaging (SHDR).
For security, there’s a Fingerprint Reader as well and features a full-size FineTip backlit keyboard. It also comes with stereo speakers with Acer’s proprietary software. For ports, we have an HDMI port, 1x USB Type-C port with DC-in, 1x USB 3.2 Gen 1 port with power-off charging, 1x USB 2.0 port.
On the battery front, the Swift 3 features a 48 Wh 3-cell Li-ion battery which according to Acer shall last up to 12 hours, which might surprise you but yes, these AMD Zen 2 based APUs are very efficient and the 7nm goodness is reflected on both its performance and power consumption.
Overall this is a great mid-range laptop with the powerful Ryzen 5 4500U, decent display, and long battery life. I feel this laptop can do the job for a lot of people and it’s much better than the Core i5 options in that price range.
Previously the budget version of this laptop was available on Amazon US and mostly the Ryzen 5 4500U versions are found outside but in India, the top-tier model with Ryzen 7 4700U powered has arrived. However, it features 8 GB RAM DDR4 3200 RAM (soldered) without any expansion slots so a 16 GB version could have actually have brought the potential capabilities of this APU.
It features 14-inch Full HD display (1920×1080) with anti-glare technology & IPS Panel Switching. Also, the screen is somewhat bright enough up to 300 nits, also if you notice, the laptop has very narrow bezels making more room for the screen in small chassis. The laptop also comes with 512 GB Samsung NVMe SSD which should give good read and write speeds.
The AMD Ryzen 7 4700U has a base clock speed of 2.0 GHz and turbo up to 4.1 GHz across all 8 cores, making it a true monster consuming just 15W TDP. The APU features 8MB Smart Cache and has Vega 7 iGPU with 1600 MHz frequency that should help during professional work and low-to-medium end gaming as well. Check out the benefits of Ryzen 4000 mobile processors here.
The Lenovo Ideapad Slim 5 comes with Windows 10 Home pre-installed and weighs only 1.6 Kg, making it ideal to carry anywhere without sacrificing on performance and battery. Yes, it has good battery life, in fact, the new Ryzen APUs draw less power than Intel ones, while Lenovo promises up to 15 hours, even if you get around 10 hours of usage, then its more than enough.
For ports, you get 2 x USB-A 3.1 Gen 1, USB-C Gen 1 (power delivery, display port), HDMI 1.4b, SD card reader, and a headphone/mic combo. Much like other laptops, it has Bluetooth 5 support and it’s good to see Lenovo has included the latest Wi-Fi 6 AX200 connectivity. The slim aluminum case of the IdeaPad Slim 5 gives it a modern feel and comes in Graphite Gray color.
The new HP Envy x360 2-in-1 laptop with Ryzen 4000U mobile processors is now in India and the 6-core AMD Ryzen 5 4500U powered model is available in the country but for hefty pricing of ₹ 75,686.
Talking about specs, the HP Envy x360 13-ay0044AU is a 2-in-1 Laptop that features the 6 core and 6 threaded Ryzen 5 4500U APU. It is clocked at 2.3GHz base and up to 4.0GHz boost along with 8MB L3 Cache. The graphics of the laptop handled by the Vega 6 iGPU with 1500 MHz frequency.

The laptop as a whole is a great laptop only downside being its display, so professionals better stay out of this but is great for normal tasks and its powerful AMD APU is a great addition to this slim and light 2-in-1 laptop.
The pricing in India makes the laptop out of reach for a lot of enthusiasts who have been eager for a Ryzen 4000U powered 2-in-1 laptop. Still, if you are eager to go for it here is the link: https://amzn.to/3jcMZRw
2. ASUS VivoBook S14
Price: starts at ₹ 65,000
Much expectedly, Asus after a big hit of its recent TUF Gaming A15 laptops with Ryzen 4000H gaming processors in India, the Taiwanese OEM has brought its budget end VivoBook laptops with the latest Ryzen 4000U APUs. But to my surprise, the word “budget” does not fit in with the pricing its currently available at.
Both the ASUS VivoBook S14 M433IA laptops come with the 6 core Ryzen 5 4500U & 8 core Ryzen 7 4700U and do have some interesting features but the 4500U variant will cost you ₹ 65,000 while the Ryzen 7 4700U variant will cost you ₹ 75,000.

AMD Ryzen 5 4500U Mobile Processor(6C/6T, 11MB Cache, 4.0 GHz Max Boost)
The integrated Vega iGPU is very strong for light to heavy workloads including casual gaming as well, making the laptop even more valuable. For RAM you have 8GB / 16GB 2666MHz DDR4 options but it’s soldered so buy a 16GB variant is available for better performance both on the CPU and GPU front. Coming to the storage, you get 256GB / 512GB / 1TB PCIe SSD options.

Back at the start of August, the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 was launched, the Taiwan giant also announced its new Zenbook lineup with AMD Ryzen 4000 APUs. However, it took a lot of time to get actually available in the market, and finally, it’s on Amazon India.
This new Zenbook lineup will start at just ₹ 69,990 but however being a laptop prices have fluctuated quite a bit. Still, this new Zenbook 14 is a great notebook for business and office users because of the premium quality along with all day productivity because of the efficient AMD chip inside it.
The laptop features 14-inch FHD 250 nits anti-glare IPS display. The laptop’s display is a 4-sided NanoEdge display with up to 90% screen-to-body ratio and has just 4.65 mm-thin side bezels.

So, these were the 8 AMD Ryzen 4000U powered laptops by various OEMs but predominately we found more ASUS laptops while Dell is not even on the list. HP, Acer has only one laptop while Lenovo cannot handle with its stock issues. The situation is a bit serious in India but hopefully, as the festive season in India arrives we will see more new laptops in the country.
The performance and efficiency of these laptops are mind-blowing and if you do end up getting some good deal online or offline do not miss the opportunity to grab them. I will be updating this list with more new launches and keep you updated.

Mumbai Indians are the most successful IPL club in the history.
MI holds the record for winning the IPL for a whopping four times. They also hold the record for the most number of IPL wins (107).
Indian cricket legend, Sunil Gavaskar has now predicted the winners of IPL 2020. According to the legendary batsman, Mumbai Indians will be winning their 5th IPL title this year.
Gavaskar told India Today: “Mumbai Indians have won the IPL 4 times which means that they know how to come out of difficult situations. That is why I feel MI shouldn’t find it too difficult to win the championship again this year,”
“As I said, experience is one of their biggest strengths. Secondly, the talent that they have in their squad and even the way they picked new players in the 2019 auction… They have applied their brains in picking the new players. It seems like they have everything in the squad, they have all bases covered which makes them a very good team for this season.”
“What they don’t have are experienced spinners like other teams. And another area of concern is the middle order, they have to think hard about who will bat for them at No.4 and 5. If Quinton de Kock plays then he will open the innings with either Rohit Sharma or Suryakumar Yadav. But who will bat at No.4?”
“Ishan Kishan can be a good option at No.4 and he can open the batting as well. They can promote Hardik Pandya at No.4 because Kieron Pollard I believe will bat at No.5. But if they don’t do that then what options do they have? Maybe Shane Rutherford can do the job, he is a big-hitter. These two areas – spin attack and middle-order – can cause issues for MI,”
Sunil Gavaskar then went on to predict the playing XI for Mumbai Indians in IPL 2020:
Rohit Sharma (c)
Suryakumar Yadav
Quinton de Kock (wk)
Ishan Kishan
Hardik Pandya
Kieron Pollard
Krunal Pandya
Nathan Coulter-Nile
Rahul Chahar
Trent Boult/Mitchell McClenaghan
Jasprit Bumrah
Gavaskar further added: “I would open with Rohit for the first few games and if he doesn’t score then he can come down to No.3. The more number of overs he plays the better it will be for MI.”
“What Mumbai Indians have are plenty of big-hitters like Rohit Sharma, Kieron Pollard, Quinton de Kock, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya. Pitches in the UAE are on the slower side and the grounds are bigger as well so I think teams should look to score 160-180 on an average in IPL 2020.”.
Mumbai Indians are one of the strongest sides of IPL 2020 with a large number of big hitters. If Rohit Sharma and Jasprit Bumrah find form, they are definitely the favourites for winning IPL 2020.
In a press interview, Pirlo said: “We’ve decided together with Gonzalo Higuaín that he will leave the club this summer. He’s out of the project and we’re ready to let him go. Gonzalo has given so much but the story must close.”.
Gonzalo Higuain has followed the footsteps of his Juventus teammate Matuidi and has joined David Beckham’s MLS side, Inter Miami. He has now signed the contract and will join them for free.
Gonzalo Higuain joined Juventus in 2016 after a fantastic spell with Napoli. But it didn’t work so well for him. In his four seasons at Turin, he was sent on loan to Chelsea and AC Milan.
Higuain made 149 appearances for Juventus and has scored 66 goals. Last season under Maurizio Sarri he has scored only 11 goals in his 43 games. It is quite natural that he is not in the plan of Juventus’s new manager.
Paul McDonough, Inter Miami CF’s COO & Sporting Director said: “We are pleased to close a deal with Gonzalo and add an experienced and successful goalscorer, who has excelled in the world’s best teams and leagues. Our ownership group has always said our goal is to not only bring elite players to Inter Miami, but also good people that share our ambition and aspiration of making history in North American fútbol, and we’re confident we have found that in Gonzalo.”
Gonzalo Higuain, who will wear the No 9 jersey at Inter Miami said: “First of all, I want to thank Inter Miami for the effort it has made to sign me. I think it will be a beautiful experience in my life. It’s what I was looking for – a new experience, a new league and a beautiful city. I’m really happy to be here and that it’s official. My goal is to try to transmit all the experience I acquired in Europe and to help the team grow.”
“I feel good, I feel whole as a player. I’m motivated to try a new league and help the team grow. Individually, my goal is to demonstrate that I can contribute and continue playing great fútbol here, and I hope I can achieve that because I have all the tools necessary to succeed. Inter Miami is a team in construction but there is already a good base to reach important goals,”.
Juventus are on the verge of signing Edin Dzeko from AS Roma as Higuain’s replacement.
Royal Challengers Bangalore, led by Indian captain Virat Kohli would be hoping to make the IPL 2020 theirs.
Bolstering some of the best batsmen in the likes of Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers, unfortunately, RCB has never tasted success in the IPL. Their bowling has let them many a time and they have earned a ‘Chokers’ tag for themselves.
Before the start of the IPL 2020 tournament on Saturday, RCB has released their new anthem which emphasises on their ‘Play Bold’ attitude and Challenger Spirit.
The new RCB Anthem is here! 👊🏼 It celebrates our fans, who we proudly call our 12th Man, and emphasises on the #PlayBold attitude & the Challenger Spirit that we believe in. Can’t wait to get on the field! 😎 #RCB#WeAreChallengerspic.twitter.com/Nod9Jb0MvI
RCB captain Virat Kohli posted the new RCB anthem on Twitter with the caption: “The new RCB Anthem is here! 👊🏼 It celebrates our fans, who we proudly call our 12th Man, and emphasises on the #PlayBold attitude & the Challenger Spirit that we believe in. Can’t wait to get on the field! 😎”.
It seems RCB has renewed hope and motivation to fight their way to the top and finally clinch their maiden IPL title.

Almost all of the OEMs have introduced at least one AMD Ryzen 4000H powered gaming laptop in India but MSI has been the one who had distanced itself from launching their MSI Bravo 15 in India. Well, now just before the festive season in India next month, MSI has introduced the AMD Ryzen 4000H powered laptop via Flipkart.
The MSI Bravo is powered by the Ryzen 5 4600H and Ryzen 7 4800H processors along with AMD’s own 7nm based RX 5500M mobile graphics which is pretty strong as well. This should give better performance most Core i5 + GTX 1650 combos found in this price range both in terms of CPU and GPU.
Talking of specs, the laptop features a 15.6-inch FHD IPS display with 1920*1080 resolution with 120Hz refresh rate and covers 45% NTSC colour gamut. Also, it has thin bezels around the corners making it look modern. You can choose between the 6-core Ryzen 5 4600H with 3.0GHz base clock speed and 4.0GHz boost clock speed or the 8-core Ryzen 7 4800H with 2.9GHz base clock speed and 4.2GHz boost clock speed.
Both the CPUs are very powerful and capable of intense gaming sessions and the Zen 2 architecture helps it consume low power and give extreme performance when required. The AMD Radeon RX 5500M graphics with 4GB GDDR6 memory give almost GTX 1660 level performance in games which is another plus point in the Rs.75k price mark.
You get 512GB NVMe SSD storage with both variants while the Ryzen 5 variant comes with 8GB DDR4 2666MHz memory while the Ryzen 7 variant features dual channel 16GB (8GB*2) DDR4 2666MHz memory. The best part is the laptop’s RAM can be upgraded easily with the two RAM slots as it has a max memory support up to 64GB.

The performance of the laptop is undoubtedly one of the best, much like all other AMD Ryzen 4000H powered gaming laptops but obviously there are some pros and cons. These days many laptop vendors are equipping these laptops with low-quality displays even though having high refresh rates and there are some caveats which I guess will be cleared with Hardware Canuck’s this video about the laptop:
So if you are suitable with all its pros and cons, you can easily purchase the laptop via Flipkart at ₹74,990 for the base variant.
Paytm Application, today, suddenly disappeared from the Google Play Store along with the Paytm First Games. Though other applications like Paytm Business and Paytm Mall are still there. On the other hand, Paytm is available in other app stores including Apple’s App Store.
Obviously, it causes panic in the maximum of the customers especially those who have a Paytm bank account. To reassure then, Paytm Twitted, “Dear Paytm’ers, Paytm Android app is temporarily unavailable on Google’s Play Store for new downloads or updates. It will be back very soon. All your money is completely safe, and you can continue to enjoy your Paytm app as normal.”
Dear Paytm'ers,
Paytm Android app is temporarily unavailable on Google's Play Store for new downloads or updates. It will be back very soon.
All your money is completely safe, and you can continue to enjoy your Paytm app as normal.
Now, we have come to know that the Paytm app violated Google’s new rules around online gambling. As per the sources, the Google team repeatedly notified Paytm to fix the issues with their app, but they continuously violate the Google policies.
Before a few hours of Paytm get removed from the Play Store, Google’s Vice President of Product, Android Security and Privacy, Suzanne Frey posted a detailed guideline through a blog where she wrote, “We have these policies to protect users from potential harm. When an app violates these policies, we notify the developer of the violation and remove the app from Google Play until the developer brings the app into compliance. And in the case where there are repeated policy violations, we may take more serious action which may include terminating Google Play Developer accounts. Our policies are applied and enforced on all developers consistently,”
“We have the same goals for our gambling policy. We don’t allow online casinos or support any unregulated gambling apps that facilitate sports betting. This includes if an app leads consumers to an external website that allows them to participate in paid tournaments to win real money or cash prizes, it is a violation of our policies,” she wrote further.
It’s clear that Paytm needs to fix the flaws to return back to the Google Play Store.
Some people are also wondering whether Paytm has also been banned in India or not, just like earlier several applications. If you are one of them, let you know, this issue is totally in between Google and Paytm. There is no question of getting banned still now.
According to Transfer Guru Fabrizio Romano, the Real Madrid duo of Sergio Reguilon and Gareth Bale are flying over to London to officially complete their moves over to Spurs.
As reported by Romano, their medicals have already been completed in Madrid and the duo will likely be announced as Tottenham’s players by the weekend.
Bale rejoins Spurs on a one-year loan deal until June 2021, whereas Sergio Reguilon joins Spurs on a permanent basis.
The transfer fee paid by Spurs for the Spanish left-back is rumoured to be in the region of around €30 million. In a rather interesting detail included in the contract of Reguilon, Real Madrid have a buy-back clause worth €45 million. Which means that Real can pay the specified amount and make the player come back to the Bernabeu at any time over his tenure at The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Gareth Bale rejoins Spurs on a loan deal, after leaving for Real Madrid as the most expensive player at the time of his departure.
Mourinho missed out on Bale as the Welshman joined right after the special one’s departure from Spain. The players have been in contact with Mourinho throughout the summer, talking about the details of their move over to London.
Gareth Bale and Sergio Reguilon have just arrived at Tottenham training groud. Shooting time then both deals will be announced. ✔️⚪️ #THFC#Spurshttps://t.co/2z1xRznkT5
Despite winning four Champions League titles with Los Blancos, the Welsh international has fallen out of favour with Zinedine Zidane and has been starved for minutes at the Spanish capital.
He hasn’t played in a Madrid shirt since the turn of the year. In an interview with Sky Sports, he also talked about being unappreciated by the Real fans and that his move away was blocked by the club last summer.
One thing is for certain. Bale will find minutes on the pitch coming along his way when he joins Jose Mourinho’s Spurs in an attempt to revive his career.
