The Los Angeles FC winger has only made two starts in the MLS since his summer arrival from Real Madrid.
Gareth Bale insists he is ‘100 per cent fit and ready to go’ for Wales in the upcoming World Cup.
The Wales captain’s fitness was a concern as he admitted he was ‘not 100 per cent fit’ after coming on as a substitute to score an extra-time equalizer in the MLS Cup final against Philadelphia Union on November 5, which LAFC won 3-0 on penalties after finishing 3-3.

Furthermore, Bale has only started twice and played 369 minutes of MLS football for LAFC.
“I’m 100 per cent fit and ready to go,” the 33-year-old told Sky Sports after confessing his struggles with a ‘slight issue’.
Bale is part of Wales manager Rob Page’s 26-man squad as the national team prepare for their first World Cup appearance in 64 years.
The Dragons will play the United States next Monday for their Group B opener in Qatar.
