Great news for Man United fans as £53million target will be offloaded this summer

Good news

According to a report by Spanish publication Mundo Deportivo, Premier League giants Manchester United have been handed a good news in their chase of Real Madrid star Gareth Bale, with the winger expecting to be offloaded this summer transfer window.

The Wales international joined the reigning La Liga Champions from Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur back in 2013 and has gone on to play 172 matches in all competitions. The forward has won three UEFA Champions Leagues titles, a Spanish La Liga crown and a Copa Del Rey Cup.

Ridiculous release clause

Bale, 28, who has a buyout clause of £443million, is contracted with the La Liga giants until 2022 but the report states he and France striker Karim Benzema will leave ahead of the 2018/19 season.

Chinese link

The Frenchman is being linked with a move to the Chinese Super League and French Ligue 1, having struggled heavily to seal a regular starting spot at the club this season due to his inconsistency.

Bale wants Premier League return

As per The Sun, the wide man apparently wants to go back to England as Real Madrid’s attempts to land Paris Saint-Germain attacker Neymar Jr. could push Bale out of the team.

United tried to sign the attacker when he was a Spurs player, and they have been linked with the Real star ever since. The player has been impressive this term, netting and providing seven goals in 10 Spanish La Liga starts, but his injury problems might be a big issue.
