| Bale is said to be struggling to make friends within the Real Madrid squad |
GARETH BALE is open to a move to Manchester United, according to reports.
The former Tottenham star has long been linked with a move to Old Trafford, with reports over the summer suggesting United made a £90million bid.
However, the rumours faded after Bale's agent Jonathan Barnett played down his desire to leave the Bernabeu.
“He was nowhere near leaving, that was all stupid paper talk,” he said in September.
“He is very happy at Real Madrid and hopefully he’ll stay for the rest of his career. He’s loving it there and things are going well for him.”
But according to ESPN, this is all a front and the Wales international's representatives have been playing down his move as part of a transfer strategy.
Bale cannot appear to be pushing for a transfer away from Real, according to the US-based publication.
And they understand the 26-year-old's agent is working on a deal away from prying eyes as Madrid are reluctant to sell.
The report adds that the Welshman has failed to fully adapt to the team or the City and has very few friends within the squad.
