Real Madrid winger Gareth Bale is about to seal a transfer to Jiangsu Suning, on the Chinese Super League side, with only minor contract details to settle.
The Welsh was badociated with a number of clubs this summer after Zinedine Zidane confirmed that he was about to leave the Santiago Bernabeu. Several teams in China would have been willing to cope with its high salary requirements.
Marca says Bale 's move to Jiangsu Suning is nearing completion and the Welshman will sign a three – year contract worth 22 million euros per season, after taxes.
The former Basel club, Tottenham Hotspur, reportedly showed late interest in the winger, but was totally unable to match Jiangsu Suning's offer. CSL rivals Shanghai Shenhua actually submitted an offer worth 25 million euros a year, but the talks finally failed.
As a result, the move to Jiangsu Suning has become the only plausible bid for Bale and he has already agreed to settle in China once the minor details are finalized.
The CSL companies belong to the Suning Group, which also holds a majority stake in Inter. They reportedly offered Luka Modric a transfer to Italy last summer, with a view to ending his career in China, in the hope of attracting the biggest names in the world.
Jiangsu Suning recently confirmed Inter's signing on Miranda, and it seems that Bale should do the same in the near future.
They currently sit sixth in the CSL standings, 23 points behind Guangzhou Evergrande, but they would likely be among the favorites for the title next summer if they could reach an agreement with Bale.
According to rumors, Bale could stay at Real after Marco Asensio has seriously injured his knee in the pre-season, but he now seems ready to leave the club.
