GARETH BALE has announced he is opening a new sports bar and grill in home town Cardiff.
The Welshman chose St David’s Day to reveal the plans for ‘Elevens’ as part of his growing brand.
Dragons flier Bale, 27, said: “It’s always been a big ambition of mine to open a sports bar.
“I don’t think there’s a place where you go just to watch sport – and it’s going to have the best burger in Cardiff.”
Brewer Brains is part of the venture and chairman John Rhys added: “We were absolutely delighted to be contacted by Gareth Bale and his team. Brains and Gareth are Cardiff and Wales’ most famous products.
“We are delighted to be working together. What could be a better match?
