Gareth Bale is free to join Real
Madrid after Tottenham agreed a
world record £86million deal
with the Spanish giants on
Sunday night, Daily Mail reports.
Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy
signed off the staggering move
for the PFA Player of the Year
following talks with directors in
the boardroom at White Hart
Lane.
Bale’s transfer to Real beats the
previous world record of £80m
which the Spanish giants paid to
Manchester United for Cristiano
Ronaldo in 2009.
Levy returned from talks in
Madrid with Bale’s agent
Jonathan Barnett and Tottenham
director of football Franco
Baldini to watch his club’s 1-0
victory over Swansea City after
agreeing the deal.
It is understood that the
decision to travel to Madrid to
meet Perez — who is known to
revel in these situations — was
part of a tactic designed to get
the highest possible price.
The fee represents an
extraordinary return on the £7m
Spurs paid Southampton six
years ago and will only add to
Levy’s reputation as the
toughest negotiator in the game.
It also brings to an end one of
the most protracted transfer
sagas in the history of the game
following a summer of talks.

Neymar>>Bale..I wonder why Madrid would pay that amount to buy him when Neymar cost just 57 million euro and is younger than him. Bale is worth less than 50 million euro
