Real Madrid ACCEPTED Bale bid from Man Utd

Real Madrid ACCEPTED a bid from Manchester United for Gareth Bale this summer, it has been revealed.

Don Balon says United were close to landing the Wales international under Jose Mourinho.

The shock report says United actually had a £92million bid accepted by Florentino Perez.

However, once informed of Perez's decision, Bale snubbed a move to Manchester United because he deems it a risky project.

It seems Bale deemed a move back to England as a step-down.

Additionally, Real also planned on replacing the 28-year-old with Kylian Mbappe, who left Monaco for PSG on Thursday.
