Contrary to expectations, Gareth Bale’s much-discussed move to Real Madrid has hit a roadblock as Tottenham’s owner, Joe Lewis, has reportedly decided against the transfer. This decision, revealed by Joe Lewis, marks the end of a prolonged saga that has been the subject of much speculation and discussion in recent days.
The owner, who has been relatively silent on the matter, has instructed Tottenham’s president, Daniel Levy, to halt negotiations regarding Bale’s departure to Real Madrid. Instead, Lewis advocates for reinforcing the team to persuade Bale to stay. The owner’s strategy appears to involve securing a Champions League qualification, which could potentially pave the way for Bale’s departure next summer.
With this development, it seems Real Madrid will have to wait longer before seeing Gareth Bale don the colors of their club, and the much-anticipated transfer remains unresolved for the time being.
