💨 Abstract

James Maddison's old, now-deleted tweets criticizing Gareth Bale resurfaced after the two spoke ahead of the Europa League final. In 2012, Maddison, then 16, tweeted negative remarks about Bale and Tottenham. Fans found the pair's interaction amusing given Maddison's past comments. Maddison deleted these tweets before his transfer to Tottenham in 2023.
