Tottenham Hotspur and Cardiff City emerge as the bookies' favourites to sign Gareth Bale when he leaves Real Madrid as a free agent this summer.

Tottenham Hotspur and Cardiff City have now emerged as the bookies' favourites to sign soon-to-be free agent Gareth Bale.

The 32-year-old sees his Real Madrid contract expire at the end of the season, and his agent Jonathan Barnett has confirmed that he will end his nine-year stint in the Spanish capital this summer.

Bale's next career move is therefore shrouded in uncertainty, but Arsenal are reported to be considering a shock move for the Wales international on a free transfer.

However, the latest odds from SkyBet reveal that Tottenham and Cardiff are both favourites to strike a deal for Bale at 6/4, with Arsenal not even on the list.

Newcastle United are close behind at 8/1, while a move to the MLS is mooted at 10/1 and a surprise switch to Manchester United is at 20/1.

Bale has only made seven appearances for Real Madrid during an injury-hit 2021-22 season but has amassed a strong total of 106 goals and 67 assists in 258 games for the club since 2013.

The former Spurs man struck 15 goals in 34 games during his brief return to Tottenham on loan in 2020-21, including 11 goals in 20 Premier League matches. body check tags ::
