Tottenham Hotspur boss Jose Mourinho  is reportedly determined to sign Real Madrid attacker Gareth Bale during this summer's transfer window.


Bale was restricted to just 20 appearances for Madrid during the 2019-20 campaign, while he hardly featured after the restart in June and told head coach Zinedine Zidane  to leave him out of their trip to Manchester City in the Champions League earlier this month.

The 31-year-old is allegedly prepared to see out the final two years of his lucrative contract at the Bernabeu even if it means that he does not represent the club again.

However, Spanish football expert Alvaro Montero recently claimed that the Wales international was keen on a return to the Premier League.

According to Cuatro, Zidane is desperate to offload the attacker this summer, and he could be offered a return to Tottenham by Mourinho, who is determined to secure his signature.

Bale started his professional career with Southampton before joining Spurs, representing the London giants on 203 occasions between 2007 and 2013, scoring 55 times in the process.
