Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has declared that the club would have no problems parting with big money to sign Gareth Bale.
The La Liga giants have been linked with making a potential record-breaking £85m move for the Tottenham Hotspur winger, but may have to wait until they appoint a new manager at the Santiago Bernabeu before making an offer.
However, Perez, who began the 'Galatico' era at the club, insists that any amount spent on the Welshman would be worth it.
"Madrid always want the best. Tottenham is a very amicable club, but first we must see who our new coach will be and after that we will begin to arrange our new squad," Perez told Marca.
"I think the same as if we were to have a tennis team and Rafael Nadal asked me for these millions. For players like this - the investment they generate you and the revenue they produce, you can give everything to try and get them. I demonstrated in 2000 that with players like this you can change the dynamic, going from losing to winning.
"Then you have to look carefully at the player involved. We are not going to talk too much about Bale because he plays at a very amicable club and they will be annoyed by too much talk about him I know their chairman well and he doesn't like things like that. But I repeat, we have a long list, but there will be one particular player, of course."
Bale joined Spurs in 2007 from Southampton.
