Today’s tittle-tattle has seen this movie before
The Mill has often wondered whether “Gareth Bale’s perpetual
Real Madrid limbo” would make a good band name, or Fall album title, or the sort of racehorse Alan Partridge might have called home in The Day Today. Whatever, said “limbo” continues to offer rich pickings for the gossip-mongers, with
Manchester United once again touted as candidates to bring the Wales forward back to the
Premier League.
With their pursuit of Jadon Sancho careering up ever more cul-de-sacs, United are considering offering Bale a one-year loan deal with an option to extend, according to the Sun. It adds that Madrid could demand an £18.5m transfer fee rather than a loan, while the Daily Mail reckons Bale isn’t so keen and the Old Trafford club would be unlikely to supplant Wales and
golf in his personal pecking order.
