Bale has always said himself personally that money will not dictate who he signs for next.
I do think there was a lot of truth in regards to Bale signing for us, and it was in the pipeline for a while.
It’s not the first time we’ve been linked with Bale, however it is the first time it’s felt like he was going to sign.
If it is true, and he signs for LA, I think it is down to his agent lining his own pockets, and what he gets out of the deal, rather than what is best for Gareth.
Let’s not blame Gareth, I really think it’s Jonathan Barrett’s fault and his input that means we haven’t signed him.
