Legendary Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has reportedly convinced Gareth Bale to sign for Manchester United, according to Sport.
Bale, who is reportedly a key target for Chelsea in the Summer, is set to depart the Bernabeu after an unhappy spell in the Spanish capital.
Bale has been frequently injured and has failed to settle since his multi-million pound move from Tottenham Hotspur in 2013.
Sport report that Mourinho believed he had convinced Bale to move before the UEFA Super Cup. However, Bale decided against a move to Manchester, instead having one final crack at making it at Madrid.
Now, it seems, Bale has given up any hope of staying in Zinedine Zidane’s side. Reports say that Bale will not stay at the club whilst the Frenchman is manager, with Zidane leaving the Welshman out of important games.
Bale recently broke the Welsh goalscoring record against China, in a huge 6-0 win in Ryan Giggs’ first game in charge.
