Real Madrid<\/a> winger Gareth Bale is ready to complete his return to Tottenham Hotspur<\/a>, according to Fabrizio Romano<\/a>. It was reported yesterday<\/a> that Spurs were close to agreeing on a deal for their former player. However, the sale has now advanced to the point where he is set to undergo a medical tomorrow and complete a one-year loan back to the North London side.<\/p>\n

How Much Will This Cost?<\/h3>\n

Due to Bale’s astronomical wages at Madrid, even a loan deal for the Welshman isn’t coming cheap. It’s thought that his weekly wage in the Spanish capital is around \u00a3600,000.<\/p>\n

Reportedly, Madrid want Tottenham to pay the full sum<\/a> of Bale’s wages, but this would completely break the wage structure at the club, hence why negotiations have continued.<\/p>\n

Other Incomings?<\/h3>\n

It’s also being reported that Spurs have completed a deal for left-back Sergio Reguilon<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Jose Mourinho’s side have beaten his former club, Manchester United, to the capture of the Spaniard, who is also set to join from Real Madrid for around \u20ac30 million.<\/p>\n

Reguilon had held talks with United, but they were far more sceptical about the buy-back clause Madrid wanted to put in the contract than Spurs were.<\/p>\n

Another area Spurs are looking to bolster is up front to ease the load on Harry Kane.<\/p>\n

Alexander Sorloth was one of those being considered<\/a>, but he is set to end his loan at Trabzonspor from Crystal Palace<\/a> to replace Timo Werner at RB Leipzig.<\/p>\n

In addition, Andrea Belotti is set to remain in Italy with Torino. It was previously reported that Spurs had had a bid rejected<\/a> for the 26-year-old.<\/p>\n

It’s now thought that Tottenham are focussed on completing and announcing the deals for Reguilon and Bale, and then they will shift their focus fully onto signing a striker.<\/p>\n
