he isnt coming back this summer.
Two things worth noting:
1. That reddit post a couple pages back (from someone who sounded like he read the original Spanish story) said Bales salary was 325k/wk, with Spurs willing to pay half. If that’s true, and the other 275k or so are image rights or something else, that’s a much more likely position for us to take financially. 175k wouldn’t break our bank but would make him a top earner, as he would expect.
2. We are reportedly engaging with Madrid on multiple potential sales and purchases - Eriksen, Ceballos, Bale, Diaz - so all talk of transfer fees should be taken with a grain of salt, especially with the Eriksen situation unresolved. There is certainly potential for us to “pay” a higher fee for Bale/Dani and Madrid to “pay” more for Eriksen, and both clubs save a little more face.
Personally, if Madrid aren’t offering what we like for CE and he isn’t likely to sign a new deal if we reject them, I’d have to think that Eriksen for Bale (on similar wages) and a loan-to-buy of Ceballos would be a pretty acceptable outcome for both parties.
It may be a pipe dream but just imagine

Are you telling me it's worth placing some cabbage on this then or not?I don't know why some of you have to poo-poo people having a bit of a fantasy, it's half of what football is about. You'd have done exactly the same to anyone who said we'd reach the CL final, why not allow people to dream, it's hardly shrewd to say 'never gonna happen', it probably isn't and everyone is aware of that, but if there's a smidgin of a chance.......what's the harm?
