United to spend big for Bale
Manchester United are reportedly lining up a big-money bid to try and land Tottenahm’s fiery youngster, Gareth Bale. Manager Alex Ferguson is however well aware of the fact that it would be close to impossible to land the player in the January transfer window,
and is looking to land Bale as soon as the season comes to a close.
Ferguson is also well aware of the fact that Bale is one of Tottenham’s most prized assets and nothing short of a spectacular offer will be enough to prize him away. The Red Devils boss is reportedly willing to offer as much forty million pounds for the
Welshman, along with one or two players to make the deal worthwhile.
Bale has been one of the shinning lights at White Hart Lane ever since his arrival three seasons ago from Southampton. He has managed to continue his hot streak this season and has so far been the team’s player of the season. He achieved the rare feat of
scoring a hatrick against European Champions Inter Milan at the San Siro, and but in a fantastic performance two weeks later to beat Inter by three goals to one. Another major plus side to Bale is the fact that he is still only twenty years old, which means
he has his whole career ahead of him.
Tottenham’s priority would be to keep a hold of Bale under any circumstances. However if an offer is made, and involves around forty million pounds plus a player or two, then it would be close to impossible for the North London team to turn it down.
The likes of Anderson, Michael Carrick and Darren Fletcher could all see themselves become a part of the swap deal that is currently being contemplated. That being said, the move will get an extra boost in the right direction if the United’s first choice
left back, Patrice Evra, decides to call time on his United career or quits international football altogether.
