Being reported that he's on £350000 a week? That's not happening.

That takes into consideration that he signs all his image rights over to Real Madrid. The 350K is in lieu of everything he would have been entitled to such as commercials, adverts, FIFA 18, shirt sales, merch, etc, etc.Being reported that he's on £350000 a week? That's not happening.

For spurs to have any chance of any deal,whether he earns 200k or 400k,it will take an act of benevolence from Bale in terms of wages.Thats an ethics question for the guy himself,PSG and increase his salary but Paris maybe a great city,but PSG not a great club in a great league.United or chelsea?chelsea I think not unless they sold hazard and ploughed it all in to a 29yr old Bale and Roman seems bored with spending,United? does Bale really want to drop down to playing left back again under Jose?besides if the 2 were on offer from RM united would take ronaldo 1st.They could pay the wages,but really stunt rashford and martial further in their careers?My understanding is that figure is AFTER tax.
I read somewhere that at the time Bale signed for RM, his deal stated that he gets 60% of all image rights or merchandise sales (unfortunately I can't recall which one). Regardless, that 60% figure is higher than anyone else at RM. including Ronaldo.
He will need some cast iron promises from Zidane otherwise City is an option? I wonder what Ronaldo will do as well. That Madrid team is at the top still now, but creaking and needs a rebuild.If i had to bet,I`d say one more year at Madrid.
I'm not entirely discounting the notion that Bale has been very responsible with his riches and would come back on money similar to what Harry Kane is getting. Gareth does not appear to be the mercenary type and has openly stated that he needs to be playing every week. Well we can offer him that, Madrid cannot despite any assurances that Zidane may give him. And as for the cash, well he would still be looked after very well and would be coming back to a fanbase that loves him. Despite him scoring the winner in two CL finals Gareth will never have the adulation of the Madrid fans that he does at Spurs and I think that makes a big difference.
The issue for me is the transfer fee and not the wages. I put a rough ceiling of 60M as to what Levy would pay (given reasonable salary expectations) and I am not sure that this figure will be enough.
Don’t forget that transfer fees are spread over a number of years typically, so £75m over three years of £25m each is not so bad. I do t think it will happen because of wages, might it depends who we sell - ie Toby + Dembele and then it might......I'm not entirely discounting the notion that Bale has been very responsible with his riches and would come back on money similar to what Harry Kane is getting.

Well Modric`s open leaving letter seems to rule out a return to us
dont worry it will all turn to judas,or he`s injury prone when he doesnt come back!!Especially if he goes to united.It's amusing reading all the posts in this starting back when everyone was "no chance we'd get him" or "don't do it to yourselves" etc and suddenly people are starting to think "could it be possible?" @Yid is probably the closest. We're all being Levyd.

Wow! didn't see that coming, Glad Poch has signed up, maybe they're going to get Wenger ha haZidane just quit,thats a spanner in the ointment then.
imagine klopp and salah.......doubleWow! didn't see that coming, Glad Poch has signed up, maybe they're going to get Wenger ha ha
There's a lot of truth in this........and in addition what more can Zidane do with anageing squad that's won the big pot 3 years out of 3. There's only one way that's heading. I also like the fact that he's pulled the rug from under Perez feet. He know's he would have been sacked if they'd lost, so he's turned the tables brilliantly and left reputation intact and Perez floundering. Maximum effect right before the World cup.Wouldn't think the real job would really be for Sir Poch. There is no bedding in time. U don't win a cup in ur first 2 days and the crowd and board are on your back. Hard to build anything there really.
Spose theres the prestige of it or whatever....

I can't think of anyone right now who would be first choice, but the World cup has just become the perfect audition for the job among some of the top guys.
The Squirrel says - I wonder what the betting is on Joachim Low? outside chances for Conte when he leaves Chelsea or Allegri perhaps?
I reckon Sarri is a prime candidate,which would deny chelsea their #1 choice to replace BaldiniI wonder if Chelski decides to hang on the Conte now just to keep him from Real. There is no way they are hiring Wenger. There are assholes, not idiots.
