Man Utd star David De Gea ‘tells Sergio Ramos about Harry Kane and Gareth Bale’ transfers
MANCHESTER UNITED star David De Gea has reportedly told Real Madrid star Sergio Ramos he expects Gareth Bale to move to Old Trafford - because of Harry Kane.
Gareth Bale scores skilful goal in Real Madrid training
Manchester United have long been tipped to sign Real Madrid forward Bale and that could finally happen this summer.
The two seem a matter of convenience with Bale out in the cold at the Bernabeu - and Manchester United still in dire need of some stardust.
Jose Mourinho forked out to land Alexis Sanchez from Arsenal in January but there already fears the 29-year-old will turn his back on the club, just like Angel Di Maria did in 2015.
And Spanish website Don Balon claim De Gea expects Bale to make the move to the club at the end of the season.
It has been another problematic campaign for the 28-year-old.

Injuries have again limited his contribution and, even when fit, Zinedine Zidane has regularly opted to leave him on the bench.
Don Balon say De Gea has been talking to Ramos about Bale and is said to have unearthed Mourinho’s plans to snap him up.
The 54-year-old is said to have personally told the Spaniard who United will sign in a bid to persuade him to stay at Old Trafford.
Bale is supposedly keen to move having learned Real will pursue a deal for Tottenham’s Kane at the end of the season.

Real Madrid's Gareth Bale shows off his golf course
Yet United may need to smooth things over with their La Liga rivals before pressing ahead with their transfer plans.
The two teams’ relationship has been soured in recent years.
Madrid were fuming when United blocked De Gea from moving back in the summer of 2015.
And Real consequently responded by stopping the Red Devils from landing Alvaro Morata last summer.
