Real eye massive bid for Chelsea's Hazard as Man Utd refuse to give up on Bale

Real Madrid may be forced to reconsider their stance on Gareth Bale with Manchester United preparing an £80million bid, according to reports.

Real have persistently insisted that Bale would not be sold this summer despite an occasionally difficult season in Madrid.

But French magazine Le10Sport claim United could tempt Real with a huge bid.

It is claimed that Manchester City remain keen and could look to match any bid made by their derby rivals.

Moreover, it is suggested that Real would move for Chelsea star Eden Hazard if Bale was to be tempted away.

Hazard only signed a new five-year deal at Chelsea this season but Real reportedly believe that receiving £80m for Bale would put them in a position to mount an enticing bid for the Belgian winger.

Last month Real president Florentino Perez told Spanish paper Marca: "We would never listen to any offers for Bale no matter what the bid was.

"He is a unique player who has already given so much to the team.

"He is the key to the club's future, just like I cannot imagine a future without Cristiano Ronaldo."
