Unsubstantiateed story from givemesport.com:

Barcelona were preparing to make a move for Gareth Bale before being persuaded that he wasn't ready to leave Tottenham by his agent, according to Spanish newspaper Sport.

Bale joined Real Madrid over the summer for a world record £86 million fee, but it could have all been very different had Barcelona followed through with their interest in the Welshman.

According to Sport, Barcelona were finalising an offer worth €60 million last year for the then Spurs star, before his agent convinced them that he wasn't ready to leave White Hart Lane.
Barcelona were in contact with Spurs and the player himself before his agent Jonathan Barnett intervened to keep his client in north London for one more season.

Having been told to they would have first refusal on Bale in two years, Barcelona instead opted to sign Jordi Alba from Valencia while the Tottenham star would go on and complete his big-money move 12 months later.

But the letter said his thigh was broken in 2 difference places. How on earth can he recover from that so quickly


Don't think it was as bad as first feared. One thing about Bale is he heals quick!

RM are just saying that to ease the pressure imo. No way we would have sold him for a tiny bit less than a world record fee, Levy will relish having his name as the record holder of getting the most money for a player.

This is the point in which we announce that he actually is and make sure all those RM fans and Ronaldo are 100% aware that they swapped Ozil plus 60 mil euros for Gareth Bale.

Looks as if he goes to stop and turn but misses the ball and trips.

Was neither a foul or a dive, just a bit silly.

Did nothing for Real against a ten man Juve. Infact I'd say after he came on Reals shape went out the window and they looked poor. Also you can tell he's not the main man anymore, no one wanted to pass to him.
