Gareth Bale

Robbie Savage has told his countryman Gareth Bale that a move to Old Trafford will put him amongst football’s greats.

There has been growing speculation about Gareth Bale’s future, with a move to Real Madrid appearing the most likely outcome.

Manchester United still have an outside chance of securing Bale’s signature if he does decide to leave White Hart Lane, but with relations between United and Tottenham somewhat frosty it appears unlikely.

But United’s hopes may have received a boost after Savage told Bale that a move to his former club could be best for him.

Speaking in an interview with The Sabotage Times, Savage said:

“I think Gareth Bale is an unbelievable talent. He’s got the world at his feet.

“I think to achieve greatness, he has to play at a team who are going to realistically contend for the Champions League and the Premier League. Will Spurs be that one day? I’m not so sure.

“I think to be put on a pedestal with the likes of Ryan Giggs, Thierry Henry, Dennis Bergkamp and Paul Scholes, he has to play for the biggest clubs in the world and I think Spurs are a big club in the Premier League, but in terms of world status; you’ve got to look at United and I’d put Manchester City in that bracket now with the finances.”

    This idiot is biased. Spurs, with bale, will contend the Premier League this season. That is definite.

      Wish I could agree mate but very scared that the scenario is beginning to look like Berb/ Modric situation. Madrid should be fined for illegal tapping but at the end of the day if Bale wants a move then Levy’s job is to get the maximum fee.
      I wish & pray we get to keep him for at least next season but if not lets do the business and get two top class strikers in his place ASAP

    Snotty Savage… Keep your nose out of Spurs business! You were a third rate non event as a footballer and have since shown your total lack of class every time you appear in the media… Gareth Bale may yet leave this year for a fortune but if he does it won’t be to any Premiership team.
    As usual Savage you talk rubbish .. God knows why anyone actually asks for your opinion
