Real Madrid are actively working on a deal to bring Gareth Bale to the Bernabeu, according to one of Florentino Perez’s trusted aides.
The Madrid president, who yesterday unveiled Carlo Ancelotti as the new manager, was strongly urged by fans attending the press conference to sign the Tottenham winger.
‘Bring Bale, alongside Cristiano [Ronaldo] we will be unstoppable,’ called supporters.
After a knowing smile and nod from Perez, one of his closest advisors turned to the fans and replied: ‘We are on it. The president is excited to bring him [Bale] to Madrid.’
In addition, when new Madrid coach Ancelotti was quizzed about the Welshman, he said: ‘If we can bring him here, it would be very good.
‘This team is very good, but there could be some changes. But it doesn’t need much.’
Reports elsewhere have suggested the Spaniards are prepared to open the bidding at £51million, plus two players – thought to be Fabio Coentrao and Arsenal target Gonzalo Higuain, although Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is still adamant Bale will not be sold.
