The Welshman was also spotted in their last game against Alaves where he used a nose mask to cover his face, pretending to sleep.

Bale has fallen out of favour with Zinedine Zidane since the return from the three months' break playing just 100 minutes out of a possible 810.

The 30-year-old was spotted displaying different antics on the bench with just 15 minutes played at the Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes.

And fans have reacted to the former Tottenham man's gesture, seeing everything Bale was doing as a side attraction.

One fan said: "Gareth Bale's just spotted a golf course in the distance..."

A second added: "Meanwhile in Spain, Zinedine Zidane looks to his bench to see if Gareth Bale is ready and focused to come on."

A third said: "Gareth Bale is at it again already for Real Madrid.

"He really doesn't care at this point...," with a laughing emoji.

Another added: "Gareth Bale dropping another meme Masterclass from Bench."

A fifth then said: "Gareth Bale sees the #LaLiga title within distance."

However, Marca reporter Ruben Jimenez has slammed Bale for his actions on the bench claiming he has not contributed to Los Blancos' success this season.

"Bale hasn't contributed anything to Real Madrid's journey to the league title."

"He walked for a while against Eibar and played just over an hour against Mallorca.

"Zinedine Zidane no longer orders him to warm up. As with James Rodriguez, the coach is very clear on who he can count on for this final stretch of the season, who is going to give their all to win the title and who feels more comfortable in the stands.

"It's clear that Bale cannot be resuscitated at Real Madrid. If he still has a drop of football left in his boots, it's up to him to decide. His agent doesn't stop saying that he is going to fulfil his contract with the club, which ends in 2022.

"Does he intend to be laughing in the stands until 2022? Does he not have self-esteem, desire for revenge or to play football?"

With two matches left to play, Zidane's men are just a win away from being crowned La Liga champions if they beat Villarreal on matchday 37.
