According to Sky Sports, Real Madrid winger Gareth Bale is awaiting the green light to fly over to London and re-join Tottenham Hotspur.
It’s claimed that lawyers are drawing up contracts for Bale’s stunning return, with the Welshman keen to make his comeback.
Bale is now just waiting to be told that he is free to fly over to England in his private jet, with slow progress being made.
The Welshman will allegedly take a month to get up to match fitness, meaning Spurs fans will have to wait to see the best of him – likely against West Ham United, after the October international break.
The Mirror claim that the loan fee involved is a huge £10million, whilst Spurs will be paying £250,000-a-week of his wages.
Additionally, Fabrizio Romano has tweeted that Bale wants the deal to be done as soon as possible, whilst Manchester United aren’t in the race.
Bale, 31, scored 55 goals in 203 games for Spurs between 2007 and 2013, before heading to Real Madrid for a then-world record fee.
Bale has smashed 105 goals in 251 games for Real, but has found himself out of favour under Zinedine Zidane – and will now make a remarkable return to Spurs, where he will hope to recapture his best form.
