FIFA president Sepp Blatter has revealed Gareth Bale could be prevented from playing for Tottenham for the duration of the Olympics.
The Wales international was ruled out of Stuart Pearce's Great Britain squad due to injury, but featured and scored in Spurs' 1-1 friendly with LA Galaxy on Tuesday – just two days before the men's Olympic football is due to get underway.
Blatter has suggested that should the FA or British Olympic Association launch a complaint to football's world governing body, the 23-year-old may be banned from featuring for his club side until August 12.
Clearly he didn't want to play for Pearce and the GB squad
so what.
where in his tottenham contract does he say he needs to jump for country whenever he is called upon. if he doesnt wanna play he should have the right to say no.
this is not slavery. FA and FIFA need to wake the F&^k up.
