PSG “will do everything in their power” to sign Bale

Paris Saint-Germain “will do everything in their power” to attract Gareth Bale to the French capital, according to the person who brought him to White Hart Lane, say the Daily Mail.

Former Tottenham director of football, Damien Comolli, identified Bale as a future prospect while at Southampton and advised Spurs chairman Daniel Levy to sign the Welshman in 2007.

Bale has been the main threat in a Tottenham side that sit third in the Premier League and are in pole position to claim Europe’s elite prize; Champions League football, with North London rivals Arsenal seven points adrift in fifth place.

Comolli told the Sun: “When you leave Tottenham and you are a player like Bale, there are only three or four clubs you can go to.

“If PSG know the player is on the market – and there is a possibility – it wouldn’t surprise me if they did everything in their power to get him.”

Bale would be offered a huge deal to move to Paris, as the French club aren’t shy to throw their money about, in their attempt to make the club a world superpower.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Thiago Sliva were brought to the Parc de Princes in the summer, David Beckham was added to the roster in January and Bale would be a huge coup over the rest of Europe.

The 23 year old has impressed domestically and abroad scoring 11 goals in 2013, attracting the interest of Europe’s elite, with Spanish duo Real Madrid and Barcelona showing interest.

Bale has hinted that the French leaders could be out of the question if he is to leave North London. He told French TV show Telefoot: “PSG are a great team. This is a club for the future, but they are still not at the level of great clubs. Not like Bayern, Real or Barcelona.”

Clubs will have to pay huge sums for the winger, Real Madrid are rumoured to be weighing up a £110 million package to land the winger, knowing they will have to compete with a pay rise at White Hart Lane if Spurs make the Champions League.

Bale hasn’t ruled out staying in North London and Daniel Levy will fight to keep his man by shattering his strict wage structure, offering the Welshman up to £160,00 a week.

PSG can fight fire with fire in the financial department, the big stumbling block for the French side will be the player’s needs. Bale’s footballing needs will see him stay at Spurs or move to either Spain or Germany, wage needs would land him in France.

If Bale can believed through his quotes, it is his footballing needs that will prevail; then it will all depend on whether Champions League football will make its return to White Hart Lane next season.
