Real Madrid move closer to Bale signing - reports


The official confirmation of Gareth Bale to Real Madrid is just hours away, according to Marca.
The deal is supposed to cost Real more than €90 million, with the Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy interested only in cash, and has rejected the offer of Fabio Coentrao as a part of the deal.
Spurs have spent heavily in this transfer window, and are expected to break their record for a third time this season, after the signings of Paulinho and Roberto Soldado, with the Brazilian midfielder Willian reportedly undergoing a medical at Spurs. They also have their eyes on Erik Lamela, who can also complete a possible move to Tottenham from AS Roma in the coming days. Andre Villas-Boas will hope to add as much firepower to his side as he can, before the Bale move is made official, and will certainly be helped by the insane amount of money that is going to fill Spurs' coffers. It is likely that Bale will be unveiled this Friday, or the next week. This shall well bring an end to one of the major transfer sagas that has dominated headlines all summer.  The agreement looks to be beneficial to all the three parties with Real Madrid acquiring the player that they so badly wanted, Bale getting a chance to play for his "dream club" and Tottenham splashing the cash wherever they can and strengthen their squad with some good signings in a bid to play Champions League football.
