Tottenham Hotspurs manager Andre Villas Boas has refused to be drawn into speculation anymore after saying no to questions regarding Gareth Bale's future at the club.
The 24 year old Welshman has been the subject of keen interest from Real Madrid this summer and has been tipped to be on his way to the Bernabeu.
Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is understood to be not willing to meet Spurs' valuation of £85 million while Daniel Levy is ready to hold on to his star player until the Los Blancos meet his demands.
Bale is also believed to be trying to force his move through and that has left Villas Boas frustrated as he aims to break into the top four next season with Spurs.
Villas-Boas said: "The only thing I can say about the stories is I am not going to comment because everybody has speculated a lot. There are some different stories, some which are not true, with people inventing without knowledge of what is going on.
"The only thing I can tell you is the player is under the treatment of the medical department for this pain in the foot which is disturbing him.
"He has been called up for his national team [for a friendly match against the Republic of Ireland], our medical department is going to be in contact with the Wales medical department to make sure they have everything available in terms of giving information on how the player has been doing in these last weeks.
"Regarding the speculation, I don't want to extend myself further than I have told you."
