Gareth Bale’s Real Madrid days appear to be numbered

After securing the 88million transfer of Chelsea star Eden Hazard, Real chiefs are believed to be keen on a move for the midfielder.Earlier this month, Bernabeu boss Zinedine Zidane hinted Bales Real future was in doubt and left him on the bench for the clubs final-day home defeat to Real Sociedad.Meanwhile, Pogba struggled for form in the latter stages of last season, failing to score from open play since February.In March, the France international admitted a move to Real would be a dream.The Daily Mirror report Real chiefs are willing to include Bale in a deal to sign Pogba this summer.Getty2

Paul Pogba could leave Manchester United this summer

And Southall, who was capped 92 times by Wales, would love to see his countryman playing at Old Trafford even if it led to Pogbas departure.He told talkSPORT: If I looked at Bale to Man United, it would be like having [Ryan] Giggs and [David] Beckham. Hes got genuine pace. Gareths in a great position, hes on 600,000-a-week.They [Real Madrid] have got to do something with him, they either play him or shove him off. If they shove him off theyve got to pay him off and he can pick where he goes. If youre saying hes part of the Pogba deal, Id rather have somebody that runs about every week, tries his best and turns up to produce magic than somebody who doesnt care.If Ive got a group of younger people underneath the first-team and Im saying look, youve got to try every week, and then they look at Pogba and go no you dont, hes 90 million quid, he doesnt try.And then youve got Bale who turns up all the time and does everything you want I know who Id rather have.
