Spanish side hoping to tempt winger away from Tottenham.
Check in to Transfer Window: Done Deal Alerts
Real Madrid are thought to be preparing a mega bucks move for Tottenham winger Gareth Bale according to The Daily Star.
The Welsh winger has been in scintillating form this season as he enjoyed his best campaign. His fets were recognised by his peers when he received the double accolade of winning both the PFA Player of the Year and PFA Young Player of the Year Award.
His performances thought were not enough to secure Champions League football for Spurs who were beaten to fourth place by Arsenal on the last day of the season.
That prompted speculation that Bale could be set to leave the club in the coming months but Tottenham have sought to prevent that from happening by offering Bale a huge £150,000 a week contract with a £50 million release clause which would kick in next summer.
But that is looking unlikely to deter Real Madrid who are reportedly ready to try to tempt Bale to the Spanish capital with a big money offer.
Madrid President Florentino Perez does not want to wait another season before signing Bale and is ready to blow Tottenham’s £150,000 wage offer out of the water.
One potential obstacle though remains the transfer fee, with Madrid only willing to pay up to £43 million for his services, far below Tottenham’s current valuation.
