Immediate response in Spain to Spurs missing out on a Champions league spot is increased speculation that both Real and Barca will chase Bale.

Both clubs willing to countenance a £60 million bid. As an example, the Real bid is £60 million over a 5 year period (mirroring the contract Bale will be offered). This is fairly typical of all continental transfers, so Barcelonas will be similar.

We all know Levy will drive a hard bargain and there is no certainty that Bale will be sold. AVB has replacements in mind, including insisting on part exchanges. Understand that Spurs will not discuss in detail with any prospective buyer until later in the close season.

Get real guys, he won't be here next season. it's all about how much we can get for him and who we can sign. you're deluded if you think Bale will stick around for europa league. let's just hope we can keep AVB and push on. {Ed008's Note - I bet you he stays!

Hes got a daughter called Alba Violet Bale who is less than a year old named after AVB who he gets on amazingly with. So Bale isn't going to be leaving spurs this season as he is happy and settled there. Bale has stated numerous times he is going to play abroad one day, likely it will be Real Madrid. We will get at least another season from bale and maybe Levy will sell then or at a later date. Bale definitely won't be moving to man u, chelsea or anyone else in premiership. that's a fact. Spurs aren't short of money so there isn't really a reason to sell him. Tottenham need to strengthen up in a few areas, particularly upfront. Losing sandro to injury and defoe been missing didn't help us this season

There is no chance that Bale will leave.

Immediate response you say, interesting. My immediate response to your made up rumour is what a lad of B. s! Another pathalogical drama queen has posted on the forum!

The Thrush would have known what the Spanish where thinking before they did themselves, he is that good!

Lots of tantrums and teddies being thrown around. Bale might well leave. He might stay. Suspect some of the tempers fraying are due to today's slight disappointment.
Cant deny that several clubs will be watching the situation now that CL isn't going to happen.
Above fee and the construct of the transfer sounds plausible

Not knowing who the Madrid manager will be next season I doubt Bale would commit there at this point in time. Now if AVB should go to Madrid i'd bet my life saings Bale will go to. If AVB gets the support from ENIC he deserves I expect Bale to stay with the new rumored contract which will reflect a huge shift in our salary structure.

This season showed we are almost there when it comes to competing with the Top 4 teams, if we want to be amongst them and not just behind them then we need to start paying competitive wages, heard Bale is to be offered £170k a week to stay

He did not name his daughter after 'AVB' get a grip!

He named his daughter after AVB? Haha, that is a lunatical thought!

Also, Barca have big financial problems and won't be bidding anywhere near the 60 million.

The real AG
