Gareth Bale set for Tottenham loan move: Real Madrid forward to fly in on Friday

Real Madrid forward Gareth Bale is set to fly to England on Friday to complete his return to Tottenham Hotspur.

A deal for Wales international Bale, 31, to rejoin Spurs on loan from Real Madrid is still being negotiated.

Talks between the clubs are progressing positively and as long as they are concluded in the same manner, Bale will travel to London.

He is understood to be training on his own at Real on Thursday and awaiting the outcome of negotiations.

Bale originally joined Spurs from Southampton in 2007 before moving to the Spanish giants for a then world record £85m in 2013.
