Manchester United have long been linked with Bale, and with Real Madrid keen to offload the Welshman's wages, a deal could be on the cards in January.

French star Paul Pogba would likely move in the opposite direction as part of the deal.

Reportedly Real are confident a deal can be done in January, yet could wait until the summer.
