People keep going on as if it's set in stone that there won't be a softening of position from other Madrid, Bale or a compromise from both. Who can or can't afford him right now has been done to death.
But when he leaves it's very likely to be because there's been an acceptance from all parties that the money isn't going to be what they want, its at that point we'll know just how viable any deal actually might be. What goes now might not necessarily be the case in two or three weeks time.
Spot on and this is the reason why the link will never go away until he leaves Madrid. There is potentially a creative deal to be done and Levy will certainly be keeping tabs on it.
