Gareth Bale to Manchester United: Real Madrid star wants to leave Bernabeu with Old Trafford preferred destination
GARETH BALE wants to leave Real Madrid, with Manchester United his preferred destination.
The Welsh wing wizard, 27, is unhappy with boss Zinedine Zidane and president Florentino Perez as he believes they have not fulfilled promises they made to him over his role in the Bernabeu setup.
In the recent match against Villareal, which ended 1-1, Bale was subbed off after 70 minutes much to his annoyance - and was bemused by his replacement Lucas Vazquez.
He felt he had done a lot more to merit continue playing on than Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema, but he was again sacrificed.
Rumours over Bale's unhappiness in Madrid have been surfaced for a while, with Perez having guaranteed Ronaldo a salary increase and he is tired of "living in his shadow."
Bale's agent Jonathan Barnett has spoken to United for months, with Red Devils' boss Jose Mourinho aiming to sign the star next summer, according to the report.
