heading for Paris Saint-Germain Old
Trafford boss Louis van Gaal’s desire
to make a ‘galactico’ signing has
grown even stronger.
United would like Barcelona’s Pedro,
whose release clause is £22 million,
to help bolster the squad for a
concerted Premier League title
challenge but that won’t dampen the
urge to bring in former Tottenham
flyer Bale.
The club’s new kit suppliers Adidas
who are pumping in a staggering £750
million over the next 10 years are also
pushing for Wales international Bale
to join United.
He is one of the company’s A listers
and they believe that Bale and United
is the perfect fit in terms of
marketing.
The fact that Real Madrid would want
all of the £86 million - and more - to
part with the 26-year-old, is not
putting off the Old Trafford hierarchy
led by executive vice-chairman Ed
Woodward.
They are prepared to smash the Bale
world record fee to snatch a player
they feel could help them win the
Premier League.
United will push for Bale right up
until the transfer window closes
hoping that the Spaniards will relent,
especially if the Bernabeu fans once
again turn on him. Also in the
knowledge they are desperate to sign
keeper David de Gea.
