Tottenham fans speculate on Gareth Bale’s predicament at Real Madrid.
Tottenham Hotspur fans are split on whether Zinedine Zidane’s Real Madrid exit will be good or bad news for their pursuit of Gareth Bale.
Bale hinted he could leave Real days ago after he scored in the Champions League final, a game he started on the bench.
The Independent reported that Bale could be interested in a return to Tottenham, and claimed that there was mutual interest to make it work financially.
So does Zidane’s exit make Bale leaving more or less likely?
One one hand, Tottenham re-signing Bale appeared to be gaining momentum, and this has the potential to halt it, especially if a new manager takes a shining to him.
It was Zidane who left Bale on the bench, and the new boss may make him a regular starter.
Conversely, Zidane was the man who pushed to sign Bale back in 2013, and he may well have fought hard to keep the Welshman if he stayed.
The Mail report the European Champions are considering offering Bale a new contract.
Real are in a difficult moment right now, with Zidane’s successor facing an impossible task.
Bale could see that Real face a tough future and want to get out while he can and the going is good.
