Football: Giggs didn’t call up Bale because he cares about him - Mourinho

Jose Mourinho appreciates Ryan Giggs' decision to not pick Gareth Bale for Wales duty as he recovers from injury. Mourinho: “Gareth officially didn't [say] anything to me, but it looks like [Ryan] Giggs cares about the player and understands how important this period is for Gareth, and it looks like his decision is not to bring him to the national team. In fact, he's not ready to play, he couldn't play for them. But to be there, and lose the work he can do with us, would be very important for the player. And when I say the player, the player belongs to Tottenham, the player belongs to the Welsh national team and it looks like he's going to have this opportunity to work specifically and to be back in good condition.”
