Suitors of Gareth Bale Increasing

Tottenham Hotspur’s rising star Gareth Bale has already become a hot property as a number of top European clubs are currently looking to secure his service. The 21-year-old Welsh international has been in sparkling form over the last one year and the left back, who is famous for his attacking intent on the left wing, is considered to be one of the best in his position in the world.

Manchester United tried to sign him this summer offering £20 million, but failed to bring Tottenham officials into negotiations. However, it is believed that Sir Alex Ferguson would make another attempt to sign the youngster next summer.

Besides the Old Trafford club, Real Madrid and Chelsea are also preparing a bid for Bale. Jose Mourinho has reportedly identified the Welshman as a major reinforcement to Real Madrid squad in his bid to bring back the club’s past glory. Mourinho failed to sign Chelsea left back Ashley Cole this summer and it seems he has now turned his attention to Bale.

Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti is also an admirer of Bale and reports suggest that he could also attempt to sign him. However, given the player’s £30 million valuation by Tottenham, it seems that only Real Madrid can afford to convince Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp to change his stance of not selling Bale.
