DBasia.news – Real Madrid immediately rejected an offer that came from Chinese club Jiangsu Suning to recruit Gareth Bale. Madrid has a strong reason to reject the offer.
Previously, the signal for the departure of Gareth Bale from Real Madrid was already very fast. The Los Merengues coach, Zinedine Zidane, has reportedly not included the Wales national team player in his plans. In fact, in an interview, Zidane said if he hoped Bale would leave soon.
“We hope he will leave soon. It will be best for all parties. We are trying to move to a new club,” Zidane said as quoted by London Football.
“I have no personal problems with him. However, there are times when problems have to be resolved because they really are,” the coach continued.
Reportedly, Jiangsu Suning is willing to give Gareth Bale a salary of 17 million euros per season. The amount is 2 million euros more from Bale received in Madrid.
The Telegraph reported the decision to cancel Gareth Bale’s transfer to Jiangsu Suning came directly from the president, Florentino Perez. Perez was reported to have special reasons for the decision.
First, Florentino Perez did not want to lose by selling Bale far below the price when buying it from Tottenham Hotspur. Based on the news that was scattered, Jiangsu Suning was only willing to give 22 million euros for Los Blancos. In fact, Madrid spent 101 million euros when recruiting 30-year players.
In addition, Real Madrid also needed Bale’s power to replace Marco Asensio’s role in the injury. Asensio is reported to be sidelined for a long time after suffering a knee injury.
Florentino Perez was increasingly determined to defend Bale after the player appeared slick at the Madrid preseason tour. Latest, Bale scored when Los Blancos faced Arsenal in the International Champions Cup.
