Bale's future at Real Madrid has been cast into doubt following the sacking of manager Rafa Benitez.

Zinedine Zidane has replaced the former Chelsea and Liverpool boss at the Bernabeu and immediately insisted Bale will be a key player under him.

 

But the Daily Mail report United are preparing a £75m bid for Bale THIS MONTH - and believe the lure of working with his boyhood hero could clinch the deal.

Giggs is the next in line to replace Louis van Gaal at Old Trafford and United think Bale could be convinced to leave Madrid to team up with the Wales legend.

Chelsea are apparently the only other Premier League club who could afford Bale's £300,000-a-week wages and have also been linked with a big-money move.

 

However, new Real boss Zidane has vowed to keep the 36-year-old happy in Madrid.

"Gareth was disappointed with the sacking of Rafa because he was an important coach for him but I will treat him the same way Rafa did," Zidane said.

"He is an important player and a key player for the squad. He's phenomenal and we're going to give him all the care and support he needs."
