Zinedine Zidane is not a big fan of Gareth Bale as the Frenchman and Real Madrid are trying to offload the forward in the ongoing window.
For the past few days, reports from both Spain and England have suggested Manchester United could be the 31-year-old’s next possible destination.
Jadon Sancho is a priority target for the Red Devils, but the Old Trafford club are unwilling to meet the €120m price tag set by Borussia Dortmund.
Bale has been looked at as one of the alternatives by United, and Deportes Cuatro brings in the latest update.
Their title states the Welshman ‘agrees to go on loan to Manchester United’, and within their report, it’s claimed the attacker ‘accepts the option’ to join Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side on a temporary deal.
The former Spurs star earns a net annual salary of €15m, and ‘warns’ Real Madrid he will not take a pay cut. According to Cuatro, Bale’s environment has leaked that the English club will not be able to pay his full wages.
Therefore, Real Madrid and United will have to find an agreement for the deal to take shape. Zidane’s side are now studying all the options ‘as long as Bale leaves’.
Los Blancos will make an effort [including a financial one] to get rid of the player in the coming days.
With Bale determined ‘not to spare a euro’ from his wages, Real Madrid may have to find a club who is willing to take him on a loan deal and also pay part of his salary.
Manchester United could be an option, but Solskjaer’s side would only consider signing the Wales international, if they accept defeat in the Sancho chase.
The majority of Spanish reports insist Real Madrid are keen on getting rid of Bale, and that United could be an option, but there’s not a lot about actual contact from the Premier League club.
