Real Madrid 'to sell Gareth Bale this summer'

Real Madrid will reportedly look to sell Gareth Bale in this summer's transfer window.

Bale - a 2013 arrival from Tottenham Hotspur - has scored 101 goals in 221 appearances for his Spanish club, helping them win one La Liga, one Copa del Rey and four Champions League crowns.

The 29-year-old has managed 13 goals in all competitions this season but has been out of favour in recent months due to injury and a loss of form.

The Wales international scored the winner against Levante in La Liga last weekend but shrugged off the congratulations of his teammates before heading back to the centre circle.

According to AS, Los Blancos president Florentino Perez has lost patience with Bale, which will lead to the European champions actively looking to sell in this summer's transfer window.

Manchester United have previously been linked with a move for the attacker, who has seemingly failed to adapt to Spanish life despite spending the last five-and-a-half years in the country.

Bale's exit could lead to Madrid making a big-money swoop for Chelsea attacker Eden Hazard.
