Gareth Bale's last few weeks of good performance may well be worth a return ticket to London before even returning to Madrid. As reported by Daily Mail, DAniel Levy, Tottenham president, will offer the new coach to replace interim Mason the option of having Gareth Bale return on loan for the next season. If the coach gives the green light, the second 'Operation return' will begin.
The one from Cardiff is facing his best weeks in North London. The attacker did not quite fit in with Mourinho as he himself expressed in a veiled way. Mason, as he assured Sky Sports, places them higher and the Welshman seems to be more comfortable. Also, happier what, according to himself, makes him perform better. For the first time, Bale scored in two consecutive Premier League games this season (one against Southampton, three against Sheffield) and raised his private account to fourteen goals. A figure that Levy thinks is enough to re-sign to the extreme.
Gareth Bale appears as an attractive option for Levy. The manager considers that the winger is providing a good performance (the team's third top scorer after Kane and Son) for the price it costs. The economic motive would also weigh on his return. According to Daily Mail, Tottenham believe that he could re-sign him on loan and on similar terms, costing the total of the operation around 12 million pounds (almost 14 million euros). In any case, that extreme will have to negotiate it again with Real Madrid, because a pure and simple assignment was signed only for this 2020-21 season, without clauses to extend it. This newspaper assures that Tottenham considers that they will not find a player who provides a similar performance for that price and, therefore, Bale is their option A. Now, they will have to convince their new coach and this also Bale.
This circumstance also occurs in Madrid. If there were a new tenant on the white bench, Gareth Bale could have his options to stay. If Zidane continues, they would look for a new outlet for him and north of London they seek his return. The Mail points out that Levy would not forgive himself seeing him succeed in another Premier League club and that is why he tries to anticipate. He also believes that he is a good signing for a season that they hope will be a transitional one.
An ending in which he gains weight
Jose Mourinho already wanted Bale at United, but when he had him both did not reach the best understanding. The Briton finished with a somewhat more secondary role than expected with fewer minutes in the Premier and more relevance in the Europa League and the English Cups. With Mason he seems to live his sweetest weeks with goals and more minutes in the League, although they ended up losing in the Carabao Cup to City, thus slipping away the much desired title.
Before the possible departure of Kane, Tottenham are already looking for the second return of the prodigal son to excite the 'spur' parish when there are less for the return to the stands.
