The mercurial Welshman is believed to have told his team-mates he doesn't wish to play for Spurs again as Real Madrid continue to hover around him.
The north London have been making contingency plans should Bale leave, and Lamela and his Roma team-mate Pjanic have been high on Spurs' agenda although they have been informed the latter isn't for sale.
According to reports surfacing in Italy, Roma's director general and sporting director have flown into London today to kickstart negotiations.

Lamela has been valued at £30m, and the 21-year-old Aregentina international can operate as either a winger or just behind the strikers in the hole position.
Bale is included in the Wales squad for their friendly against the Republic of Ireland this evening.
Meanwhile, Pablo Osvaldo continues to generate interest from Southampton.
