REAL MADRID will let Gareth Bale leave the club this summer which will open the door for a potential return to the Premier League.

United were previously linked to Bale and are keen on bringing him to Old Trafford, according to.
Spurs boss Jose Mourinho is an admirer of Bale, and would like to bring him back to the club, but Spurs currently do not have the cash so a deal looks unlikely.

"I want to play football. I'm still motivated to play football. I guess it's on the club. I can't do much. They are in control of everything."
Bale has won four Champions League titles in Spain but played just 100 minutes of their previous 12 games since the lockdown.
He has two years left on his contract, but Madrid don't want to give him a pay-off, which could see the 31-year-old rot in the reserves for another season if a move isn't completed.
