Gareth Bale joins crew of football legends including Marcus Rashford and Jamie Vardy for new BT ad
GARETH Bale joins a number of football’s famous faces in a new TV ad — and dials it in from the golf course.
The Real Madrid ace, 31, spent much of last season on the bench, but plays a starring role in promoting BT TV.
The ad starts with Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti leaking notes from a secret meeting discussing unlimited substitions in football.
Word of the fictional rule change spreads and pundits including Gary Lineker and Rio Ferdinand are seen reacting.
It then cuts to Leicester City’s Jamie Vardy and wife Rebekah on the sofa on their holiday villa in Mykonos.
Man United’s Marcus Rashford and Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold also appear.

The latter then video-calls avid-golfer Bale on the course and quips: “You might actually get a game now.”
BT is allowing fans to sub BT Sport, Sky Sports and Amazon Prime packages in and out, so they can watch more Premier League football.
But Bale might be more interested in golf coverage.
