Gareth Bale leading consortium to buy Cardiff City
Gareth Bale is leading a consortium that has made an approach to buy Cardiff City. Bale's group sent a letter of intent to Cardiff owner Vincent Tan last month, which expressed their desire to purchase the Welshman's hometown club and included financial numbers. The proposal was rejected but interest from the former Real Madrid winger in Cardiff remains strong — whereas he is not in the frame to acquire Plymouth Argyle, despite recent reports. Cardiff declined to comment. Advertisement Cardiff were mooted as a possible destination for Bale, 35, in 2022 after he left Real Madrid but he signed for LAFC instead, where he made 14 appearances before retiring after the World Cup in Qatar. The Welshman's potential involvement in Cardiff comes after his former Tottenham Hotspur and Madrid team-mate Luka Modric became a co-owner of their south Wales rivals Swansea City earlier this month. Bale, who announced his retirement as a player in January 2023, would be the latest big name to attach themselves to an ownership group of a team in the English Football League. NFL legend Tom Brady became Birmingham City's minority owner in August 2023, while American golfers Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas bought shares in Leeds United before their promotion to the Premier League in May. Cardiff have been a Premier League side as recently as 2018-19 but finished bottom of the Championship last season, two points off Plymouth in 23rd, recording only nine wins. Head coach Omer Riza was sacked in April and replaced on an interim basis by Bale's former international team-mate Aaron Ramsey, though he could not change their fortunes. Brian Barry-Murphy has been appointed head coach ahead of the 2025-26 season, as Cardiff prepare for their first campaign in the English third tier since 2003.

Your Guardian Sport weekend: England v India, Club World Cup, tennis and NBA
Saturday 11am (all times BST) England v India live Cricket Day two of the first Test gets under way with Rob Smyth and James Wallace your over-by-over-hosts. India are seeking a first series win in England since 2007, having been held to a 2-2 draw last time out, a garland their new red-ball skipper, Shubman Gill, ranks higher than going all the way in the Indian Premier League. 'You don't get many opportunities as a captain to be able to come to England and you get to have a crack at the IPL every year,' says one of the IPL's poster boys and title winner with Gujarat Giants in 2022. 'In my opinion winning a Test series in England, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa is bigger.' Ali Martin, Andy Bull and Simon Burnton are our reporting team at Headingley. Advertisement 11am Royal Ascot live Racing 'It's the biggest five days in our sport – our shop window,' says leading jockey William Buick of the glittering five days of Royal Ascot. The Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes (3.40pm) is the highlight of the sun-baked meeting's final day. Kevin Ryan's Inisherin was a brilliant winner of the Commonwealth Cup over the course and distance 12 months ago while French raider Lazzat won his first six starts for Jerome Reynier and having bolted up back over six furlongs at Chantilly has been snapped up by the powerful Wathnan Racing operation. One to watch is Aidan O'Brien's Australian recruit Storm Boy. Tony Paley keeps the updates flowing with Greg Wood our reporter in top hat and tails at the Berkshire course. Advertisement 2pm Queen's men's semi-finals Tennis Under a broiling sun in west London, conditions have been particularly gruelling as some of the world's leading players gear up for Wimbledon. Top seed and 2023 winner Carlos Alcaraz endured three hours and 23 energy-sapping minutes in beating compatriot Jaume Munar on Thursday. The match may have been two hours shorter than his five-set French Open final win over Jannik Sinner earlier this month but the five-time grand slam champion suffered as temperatures soared to 32C. After a 15th straight win, the longest winning run of his career so far, a near-exhausted Alcaraz admitted: 'It was a really tough battle.' Tumaini Carayol has all the action covered. Advertisement 3.15pm England XV v France XV Rugby union An unfamiliar England face France for Saturday's non-cap international. There are five uncapped names in Steve Borthwick's makeshift squad, with three set to start as call-ups to Andy Farrell's British & Irish Lions have have given the head coach the chance to experiment. The late addition of Jack van Poortvliet to the Lions party means there will be 14 players unavailable when England run out for the final time before the summer tour to Argentina and the United States. Michael Aylwin reports from Twickenham. 8pm Spain v England, U-21s Euros live Football Advertisement The European Under-21 Championship 2023 winners face a rematch with Spain, who they defeated to lift the trophy two years ago. But Lee Carsley's side approach the quarter-final in patchy form having followed up last Sunday's goalless draw with Slovenia with a disappointing 2-1 loss against Germany to round off the group stage. Slovenia's defeat to the Czech Republic in the other match in the group was enough to secure Carsley's side passage to the last-eight tie in Trnava, Slovakia. Will Unwin keeps the updates flowing while Ed Aarons reports. 8pm Jonathan Wilson Inside football Our columnist considers the cult of personality at the revamped Club World Cup – how the individual walk-outs at the start of matches offer further proof, if any were needed, that Fifa is failing to understand that football remains a team sport – just ask Paris Saint-Germain, who unlocked European success by ditching their superstars. Sunday 11am Advertisement England v India live Cricket Rob Smyth and Taha Hashim take up the over-by-over baton on day three at Headingley. Win against India in the coming weeks, then reclaim the Ashes in Australia and Ben Stokes would go down as one of his country's greatest skippers, but he is not ready to think in those terms. 'There's always a different buzz coming up against India and Australia in particular, purely because of how big those series are,' he says. 'Away from the dressing room, we know what these series mean compared to other ones. But defining a career as England captain isn't something that I really think about. If that's what I'm really bothered about, it's just completely and utterly selfish and that ain't me.' 11am Advertisement County Championship live Cricket Tanya Aldred helms our rolling blog and will no doubt be keeping a weather eye on Jofra Archer's exploits for Sussex against Durham. England's paceman has been beset by a litany of injury problems and played the last of his 13 Tests in February 2021. It is hoped he will make his first-class return, part of a plan that could lead to him being restored to Ben Stokes' squad at some point during a five-match series against India. There has been an understandable sense of caution about Archer's latest rehabilitation, which was further delayed by a broken thumb, but the bowler himself has made his own intentions clear – at one stage floating a hurried return in last month's one-off game against Zimbabwe. 1am Monday Advertisement Game 7 title-decider live NBA finals The Indiana Pacers stormed to a 108-91 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Thursday to level the NBA finals at three games apiece and set up a decisive Game 7 in Oklahoma City in the early hours on Monday. David Lengel will be across all of the action with his live blog on the biggest night in the basketball season. 2am Monday Manchester City v Al Ain live Club World Cup In the small hours, our live coverage of the tournament continues at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta as the holders face Al Ain. City's new signing Tijjani Reijnders will be hoping to build on his impressive debut in the comfortable 2-0 win over Wydad Casablanca in Philadelphia on Wednesday. The Dutchman joined City from Milan last week in a deal worth an initial £46.5m as part of Pep Guardiola's rebuild in response to their disappointing 2024-25 season. Alexander Abnos hosts our minute-by-minute coverage.
