The Guardian have now shared an update on Tottenham Hotspur‘s transfer plans as the Lilywhites eye a Bosman move for ex-superstar Gareth Bale.
The Lowdown: Conte gets busy…
It’s safe to say this start to the summer window has been Spurs’ liveliest in recent memory as the north Londoners really seek to back manager Antonio Conte.
The Italian is set for his first full Premier League season in charge and has already made serious moves with reliable reporters like Fabrizio Romano even claiming they’re not done there.
This is allegedly just the beginning as Conte prepares for pre-season at Hotspur Way, and according to The Guardian, Spurs remain in contention to re-sign Bale for a third time.
The Latest: Guardian make Bale claim…
According to their information, Spurs, Newcastle and Aston Villa are all ‘keeping an eye’ the Wales international star.
They add that Bale is ‘keen’ to find a new club to ensure he is fit for his country’s first World Cup in 64 years.
The Verdict: Make an offer?
Having scored 183 career goals at club level, Bale has certainly impressed in the past, both abroad and England.

Once a key man for Spurs, ex-coach Harry Redknapp summed it up perfectly by branding the 32-year-old ‘priceless‘, yet his age and questionable fitness record over the past few years could make a third reunion a gamble for Conte.
Despite being a ‘big player for Wales‘, as explained by national team boss Robert Page, we believe the Lilywhites should perhaps let sleeping dogs lie in this case.
