TOTTENHAM could make the signing of the season if they can get Gareth Bale out of line and I suspect Manchester United might regret not choosing him.
ale has had some problems in recent years at Real Madrid, but I think he is still one of the best players in the world when he is in top form and motivated to play.
José Mourinho has tried to sign him several times over the years and now it seems he is close to getting it at Tottenham, which I think would be great news for English football as a whole.
We want to see top-tier players in the Premier League and Bale is a match for anyone if you look at his record of wins, goals and assists since he joined Real Madrid seven years ago.
Liverpool fans painfully remember the impact he had when he came off the bench in the 2018 Champions League final and scored one of the greatest goals of all time to swing the game in favor of Real Madrid and if Mourinho can get something like that. like that kind of magic. Outside of him, Bale could transform a Spurs team that clearly needs a boost.
A front of three from Harry Kane, Son Heung-min and Bale would be very tasty and I wonder why Manchester United did not get into the mix to sign the Welshman while still stuck on a deal to sign Jadon Sancho.
Borussia Dortmund are making it clear that they will not sell Sancho for less than 120 million euros, but that is a lot of money for a young player who has yet to prove that he is the real deal at the highest level.
There is a theory that Sancho is on his way to being a world champion, but we have seen many young people in their 20s with that label and they have rarely lived up to the billing.
The stories appeared in the newspapers earlier this week suggesting that United were prepared to walk away from the Sancho deal and that they were linked to a move by Bale, but I’m not sure it was a serious rumor.
United are known for leaking information to the media linking them to big-name players, as they feel they need to do so in order to maintain their reputation as one of the biggest clubs in the world.
It makes them look good if they are linked with players like Bale, Neymar or other superstar players, but are they really going to buy players like that? I do not think so.
They seem to be targeting their youngsters like Marcus Rashford, Mason Greenwood and Anthony Martial as they prepare for their first game of the season at Crystal Palace on Saturday, however I look at Bale at the age of 31 and he is a player who has a point to prove again.
He has won the Champions League four times, has shown himself to be a great modern player, yet his reputation has been tarnished by the perception that he has lost his appetite for the game and prefers to play golf rather than soccer in the last two games. years.
If he returns to England he will be desperate to silence the critics who have shattered his reputation and that is one of the reasons why I think Spurs could be making a game-changing signing and United might regret having ignored the opportunity.
I look at the transfers Chelsea have made this summer and they have to improve their squad, while Manchester City have already spent a lot and will probably buy again before the window closes.
Arsenal are moving forward with Mikel Arteta and the news that Pierre Emerick-Aubamayang has signed a new contract was a huge boost for them.
Then you have United and it seems that nothing has improved since last season, despite the signing of Donny van de Beek from Ajax.
I know they have been affected by some big name signings that have not performed like Alexis Sánchez in recent years, but Bale’s arrival at United and following in the footsteps of fellow Welshman Giggs could have been a huge boost for the club. .
Let’s be brutally honest here, United are trying to catch up with Liverpool and Manchester City and need to find a way to make up ground after finishing an embarrassing 33 points behind Jurgen Klopp’s Reds last season, but it looks like they haven’t. . the money to sign the big names this summer.
Instead, it looks like Spurs are sticking with Bale and I think they are hiring a player who will have a huge impact in the Premier League this season.
