Gareth Bale is "ticking all the boxes" since returning to Real Madrid which is a boost for Wales ahead of their forthcoming 2022 World Cup qualifiers said Welsh manager Robert Page.

Bale is back in favour at Real under new coach Carlo Ancelotti -- having been sent on loan to Tottenham Hotspur by his predecessor Zinedine Zidane -- and scored in their 3-3 draw with Levante last Sunday.
