Chelsea fans here in the Football Transfer Tavern are looking up with interest after hearing the latest claim from Metro, who seem to think that the Blues could well be about to land Gareth Bale.
Now as one of our punters notes over a beer and burger by the bar, landing Bale would be a huge coup for Jose Mourinho and one that would send shockwaves through Europe – and make their Premier League rivals fear for a future in the league with Chelsea having both Eden Hazard and Bale.
The winger would cost the Blues a huge amount of money, but Chelsea are within the confines of FFP and are certainly looking to spend big this summer as they look to defend their title and build on their success.
