Tottenham transfer news: Real Madrid to use Gareth Bale in bid to land Christian Eriksen
Real Madrid are considering using Gareth Bale as a makeweight in their bid to sign Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Christian Eriksen.The Spanish giants want to offload the Welshman as he fails to impress in the absence of Cristiano Ronaldo, who left the club for Juventus last summer.2

Real Madrid star Gareth Bale in action.

And keen on rejuvenating his side, president Florentino Perez seems set to offer him as part exchange for playmaker Eriksen, who is in his sixth season at Spurs but will have just one year left on his current contract come July.Attempts from Tottenham to get the Dane to sign a new deal have so far stalled, which could mean his exit is inevitable, which may make a swap deal a sensible outcome for all parties.According to the Daily Mirror, Manchester United also have interest in Bale as they look to bolster their attack, while Chelsea are similarly keen but have a transfer ban hanging over them. Robert Pires, meanwhile, has suggested Arsenal should ‘open the door’ to a shock deal for Bale.He said:“I think there’s a good chance Gareth Bale might be playing his last season atReal Madrid,” Pires toldbwin.“He is having a very tough time on and off the pitch at the moment, and there are a lot of questions about how settled he is in the dressing room and how appreciated he is by the fans.2

Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Christian Eriksen could be on the move.

“You can see that Bale is an unhappy player at the moment. I think coming back to the Premier League is the most logical step for Gareth Bale.“There’s an assumption that he would go back to Tottenham, but I would encourage Arsenal to open the door to the Emirates for him.“I know Tottenham fans would not be happy, but Bale would be very welcome at Arsenal. I hope the club tries to see if it is an option this summer.”
