Manchester United are on the move with a complex £100million deal for
the release of Real Madrid star Gareth Bale - with David de Gea heading
to the Bernabeu.
Real have already made it clear to United that they will pursue De Gea in the summer with the Old Trafford giants'
transfer negotiator Ed Woodward valuing the 24-year-old Spaniard at a
staggering £50m - which would be a world-record fee for a goalkeeper.
European
champions Real remain interested despite United's huge valuation for a
player who cost £17.8m when he joined them from Atletico Madrid in 2011.
But for the deal to succeed United will demand Wales star Bale - and they're willing to put De Gea plus £50m on the table to make it happen.
United are in no great hurry to sell De Gea, who has emerged as arguably the world's top keeper in the last year.
But
talks over a new deal with De Gea's agent Jorges Mendes are at an early
stage and it's believed the keeper is waiting to see if United make it
into next season's Champions League before committing.
Having just signed 32-year-old former Barcelona keeper Victor Valdes, boss Louis van Gaal believes he has a perfect ready made replacement for de Gea if he decides to go. ...DailyMirror
