As they usually do when they have no real stories to publish, Madrid sports newspapers play today the fortune teller game, claiming they both have guessed the price Real Madrid will have to pay for Gareth Bale.
Surprisingly, it is As who publishes the most credible story -probably without any real basis as it is common of them- stating Tottenham Hotspur have asked Los Blancos 98 million euros and Fabio Coentrao in exchange for the Welshman.
“Daniel Levy and Florentino Perez could close the deal in the United States next week”, As reports.
Marca loses it completely publishing that Tottenham asks for 145 million. “Madness”, they title, without making clear if they refer to Bale’s price or their level of sanity when they decided to go with that front page.
“An angry level responds with exorbitant price”, they claim. “Tottenham president considers the exit of the player would be a humiliation”, they add.
Marca also highlights Real Madrid youngster Jese Rodriguez arrives today to Los Angeles to start the pre-season “very thrilled” with becoming a member of the first squad.
The money isn’t the priority but,winning champions league is all we wanted…let me see…..

Great article. Unbiased reporting, keep it up! Giving us the true picture.
Can’t say if getting Bale is necessary for the team or for Florentino Perez. Hope whatever decision is reached it only helps the team.
I seriously feel we could field 2 world class teams, don’t know if thats needed though.
