@garethbale11 - Gareth Bale Has No. 11 In Name On Social Media
Gareth Bale started his career wearing 16, then switched to 3 before making his name as their No 11. Gareth Bale carried over the No. 11 kit to Real Madrid, with Argentine Erik Lamela inheriting it at Spurs.
Lamela is still at the club, meaning Bale opted for the No. 9 - last worn by Vincent Janssen.
Spurs posted each his numbers worn at the club on Twitter, as they posted: 16:03:11:09. They even added the text to their bio.
