Tottenham should avoid trying to deal with Real Madrid.
Real Madrid’s deals to sign Luka Modric and Gareth Bale from Tottenham Hotspur have proved to be roaring successes, with the pair each winning three Champions League medals.
Spurs exacted a small measure of revenge this week when they beat Real 3-1 in their Champions League clash at Wembley.
Tottenham were urged to re-sign Gareth Bale this summer by Ian Wright, SkySports reported, and the North London side retain a first option clause over him.
Buying him back as the marquee addition for when they move into their new stadium in 2018 would truly be a dream move, especially with Tottenham in need of a dynamic winger.
The problem is that Tottenham’s big win over Real has seen the Spanish side intensify their gaze over Tottenham’s star assets.
Harry Kane was already linked to Real before the game, and now Dele Alli has emerged as a top option.
The Mail even report head coach Mauricio Pochettino is a target along with the star duo.
Spanish outlet Don Balon report Cristiano Ronaldo has urged the club to sign Christian Eriksen.
With Real coveting their star assets, Tottenham would not be particularly smart to begin negotiations with them over Bale, as much as they want him.
Real may consider letting Bale leave, but you can be certain they would want something in return, a potentially key piece of the Tottenham jigsaw.
Bale is a superstar, but not worth Tottenham breaking their team up for, as they once found out when he was a key part.
Real’s re-focused desire to look to Spurs to solve their own problems will make it harder for Tottenham to make a straightforward move to sign the Wales international.
