Coming out on top in this list of suitors-elect for Bale is the third and final Premier League- the champions Manchester United What sets them apart and gives them top billing in this rundown, is that unlike many, if not all, the clubs here have made £20+million purchases except United. No movement inwardly to Old Trafford has come this summer and despite various rumours about players who may come, none have materialised. One of those feint rumours has been about Bale and after Monday's 0-0 home draw against Chelsea, manager David Moyes wouldn't be drawn on a possible bid, but admitted interest in the 24-year-old Welsh star. Last year, it was Robin Van Persie's signing that inspired United to the League last season, in the face of neighbours City making moves on players much before Van Persie's signature. Now we're almost at that exact situation again and despite the lack of activity on their part, it could all be about to change, as United could break the British transfer record for a transaction. Wouldn't that be nice! Which club, if any, do you think has put in this mystery bid? Feel free to comment below.
