London club not willing to spend big for Real Madrid’s Galactico leaving their rivals on high alert.
Chelsea are playing a dangerous game ahead of this summer’s transfer window as they risk being beaten to one of their targets by Manchester United and Tottenham.
Los Blancos are willing to sell Bale but want around £70 million for him, though Chelsea supposedly won’t go higher than £55 million for the Wales international, according to Spanish transfer reports.
The 28-year-old could be just the signing needed for Chelsea after this difficult and frustrating season, with attacking reinforcements surely needed after the club’s struggles to even make it into the top four.
Reports add that Manchester United and Tottenham look to be in the mix for Bale, but it is Chelsea who are being stingy over the deal at present, putting them at a major disadvantage.
