Manchester United are willing to pay what it takes to land Real Madrid winger Gareth Bale. The Sunday Times says United are willing to break the world transfer record to sign Bale.

The 25-year-old reportedly wants to leave Real Madrid and his representatives have promised Bernabeu bosses a profit on the Welshman.

After a fine debut season in the Spanish capital Bale has struggled for form during his second campaign and has been jeered by his own supporters on a number of occasions.

The Red Devils could raise the funds for a bid by selling Angel Di Maria.
