United would actually get their monies worth

Bale is only 25 years of age and really just getting going at the very highest level.

That means that the £90 million Real Madrid are asking for would not be going to waste.

A major issue with bringing Ronaldo back to the club is the price tag on his head and his age, but with Bale that is not the case.

Of course £90 million is a huge sum of money, but if anyone is worth it, Bale probably is.
