Sick Bale flies solo for Welsh

WRAPPED UP ... Gareth Bale ahead of Scots clash

GARETH BALE has been put into quarantine as Wales go to extraordinary lengths to get him fit to face Scotland in tonight’s World Cup qualifier.

The Tottenham winger seemed to have shaken off an ankle injury from the weekend but was struck by a virus on Tuesday.

The poorly star flew to Glasgow on a different plane to his team-mates yesterday and trained on his own at Hampden Park.

Wales boss Chris Coleman said: “Gareth took a later flight to the lads because we wanted to separate him from the lads for obvious reasons.

“And he didn’t do a proper session on Thursday. There was a session planned for him — but it was modified.”
