Bale’s agent told the BBC that the talks “are progressing slowly” but added that “Gareth is closer to leaving Madrid than at any other time in the last seven years.”

Man City to focus on League duo over Koulibaly
Napoli’s assessment of Manchester City’s goal Kalidou koulibaly has led Pep Guardiola to consider alternative players to fill his defensive void, says The Guardio.
Koulibaly has been on City’s radar for some time and earlier this month a € 60 million offer for the 29-year-old was rejected. It has since been reported that Napoli will accept an offer in the region of 80 million euros, a fee that Guardiola considers too high.
Consequently, Sevilla FC Diego Carlos and Atlético de Madrid Jose Gimenez have caught the attention of Guardiola. The Guardian report states that if Napoli fails to reduce its demand for Koulibaly, City will instead bid for Carlos or Giménez.
However, there is a downside, both players come with strong release clauses. Giménez’s is said to be 109.8 million pounds, while Carlos’s is said to be 68.7 million pounds.
