Tottenham are interested in bringing Gareth Bale back to England this summer.
According to Marca, the Londoners are willing to submit an offer in the region of €50-60m for the winger.
The report adds that Spurs will only pay half of his wages and Real Madrid are currently considering the proposal.

It will be interesting to see what happens in the coming weeks.
Bale was a fantastic servant for Tottenham and it would be a huge morale boost for everyone associated with Tottenham if he comes back.
Despite his dip in form at Real Madrid, Bale remains a world-class player who can win games all on his own.
The 30-year-old could take Tottenham to a whole new level next year. Pochettino’s side aren’t far off Liverpool and Manchester City. Someone like Bale could help bridge that gap.
Bale is unwanted at Real Madrid and he might be tempted to consider a return as well.
Real Madrid are better off selling the player permanently, even if they have to take a hit on his wages. There is no point of keeping him on their books if Zidane is unwilling to use him.
Here is how the Spurs fans have reacted to the news.

Sounds feasible⏳
NOW .. is it a question of ambition
a) rejuvenating that career joining a dynamic project & brilliant manager
OR/
b) staying/potentially deteriorating in the sun for cash that a super wealthy player doesn’t really need

Love to see it. But definitely does not play the type of game Poch wants, is injury-prone and is far too old for the current age profile of our recruits.
