Manchester United could move for Gareth Bale

Manchester United could make a shock move for Real Madrid’s Gareth Bale as the pursuit of Jadon Sancho continues to cause the club frustration.

According to The Daily Star, Solskjaer sees Bale as a good alternative to Sancho as the Red Devils look to close the gap on the Premier League’s top two.

United are growing continually frustrated with the move for Sancho with his club Borussia Dortmund refusing to budge on their  £108million asking price.

It is believed that Ed Woodward would prefer to take Bale on loan from Madrid with an option to buy with the club ready to pay half his wages in a bid to get the Welsh international off their books.
