Bale has been beset with injuries this season; he was set to make his return in the El Clasico on Saturday, December 23 but he was forced to return to the bench as Dani Carvajal was shown a red car.
Real Madrid would eventually lose 3 - 0 to Barcelona with Luis Suarez, Lionel Messi and Aliex Vidal all finding themselves on the scoresheet.
