Tottenham Hotspur to sign Gareth Bale permanently?

Tottenham Hotspur will be offered the chance to sign Gareth Bale for just £13.4m at the end of the season.

The Welshman fell out-of-favour under Zinedine Zidane at Real Madrid last term and that paved the way for his return to Spurs on loan.

Bale has since scored just one goal from six appearances, but that was the crucial winning strike against Brighton & Hove Albion.

According to Calciomercato, Spurs boss Jose Mourinho has been impressed with Bale's second coming at the north London giants.

It is added that the Portuguese would like to work with the attacker beyond this season and will give the green light for a permanent move.

Bale's current deal at Los Blancos expires in June 2022 and it is reported that they could sell him for £13.4m during next summer's transfer window.

The Welshman will, however, have to accept a significant pay-cut to join Spurs on a permanent basis in eight months' time.
