Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed that the Spanish club are in talks with Tottenham Hotspur to sign Gareth Bale.

Ancelotti, who’s in the United States preparing for his club’s match tonight against LA Galaxy in Phoenix, had this to say to the media:

“It is difficult to talk about Bale because at the moment he is not a Real Madrid player.

“I believe the club is in talks to find a solution and we will see what happens. I am not used to talking about players who are not in my team and it would not be right to do so.”

Some Tottenham Hotspur supporters have been denial the past week claiming that the reports that Bale wants to move to Real Madrid are fabrications. Hopefully now they can begin to realize that a deal for Bale is closer to being finalized.
