Cant see many other top European clubs interested Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 He's not good enough for United, which says a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 I don't see many having him either, real will do their bit and offer him for £30-40m but no one will go near north of £300k a week, not even Utd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 It's can't risk the wages and fee on him, not what they need, shift Sanchez and get bale doesn't fix enough for them, they need a young hungry incredibly well scouted set up (they wont) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Thought it was really poor from Zidane to name him on the bench and then not bring him on. If he wasn't going to do it then at least leave him out of the squad like last few games. I think he'll leave Madrid on a loan deal, similar to what they did with James Rodriguez who left on a two year deal to Bayern Munich. He is back now but won't have long left on his deal so easily sellable. Actually Munich might be a decent choice as they're letting go for Ribery and Robben so room for another wide player in their squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Bale is more than good enough for Man Utd, Arsenal, Spurs and probably Chelsea. Obviously latter not happening due to the ban. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously latter not happening due to the ban. With him it's about fitness and value for money rather than ability. Out of those I reckon a loan back to Spurs would be the best fit, as I can't really see anyone wanting to buy him outright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I'm sure Bale would take a pay-cut just to get back playing in the Premier League. Hes's plenty good enough for any top English side. it just hasn't worked out at Real the way he wanted,. He still has had his moments though like the champions league final against Liverpool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 The problem is if the rumoured £600k a week is true then I still don't think anyone in the world would touch him on a 50% pay cut like I said big money or football decision coming up for him also think the criticism zidane has got is a little bit unfair, the only chance Madrid have of shifting him is to piss him off, nothing else will work, they have been blatantly clear where their stance is, he's finished there 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I feel so sorry for him. Its madness the money footballers get now. The late Kevin Beatie who was an amazing footballer ended up on benefits. Its all wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But unless he has drastically deteriorated over the past couple of seasons then he's easily good enough for Man Utd. I'd even be tempted to say he's TOO good for the current Man Utd.

villa4europe Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 says hes staying and will see out his contract choosing money over football then, before the inevitable comparisons to me doing it too I haven't earned 600k a week for the last 3 years, with his other deals and bonuses he must have raked in around 100m during his time in spain, last chance to go do something somewhere else (which I agree probably too good for utd, go join someone who will do something) think his age, wages and fee mean he's just not a good package for any of europes big boys, no one will want him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not particularly wanted at Real Madrid and isn't particularly happy there (from reports only) but is earning crazy money. However, Real Madrid are asking for crazy money for anyone to sign him. He's basically putting the ball in their court - he's not going to sulk his way out of the club so if they want rid of him, they'll have to do it publicly and for a reduced fee, allowing another club to pick up his wages. Makes sense really. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
