Wales captain Gareth Bale confirmed Saturday his move to Major League Soccer's Los Angeles FC (LAFC) following his departure from Spanish giants Real Madrid.

Bale confirmed his plans to join LAFC in a post on Twitter following widespread reports earlier Saturday about the move.

"See you soon, Los Angeles," the 32-year-old wrote. An accompanying video showed Bale wearing an LAFC shirt and cap.

ESPN reported that Bale will fly to Los Angeles at the end of next week to sign a deal that runs to the end of this season, with an option for an additional year.

It is noteworthy that Bale was once the world's most expensive player and has spent the last eight seasons with Real Madrid, winning three local championships and five Champions League titles.

The Welshman has scored 139 league goals in his club career with 39 goals in 106 internationals for Wales.

He played a pivotal role in helping Wales qualify for this year's World Cup, where they will face the United States, England, and Iran in the group stage in Qatar.

It marks the first time Wales has qualified for the tournament since the 1958 finals.

Bale will be the second high-profile international signing LAFC has made in recent weeks. Former Juventus and Italy international Giorgio Chiellini joined the club earlier this month.
