“I would like to thank everyone at the Club, the Chairman, Board, staff, coaches and players – and most of all the fantastic fans who I hope will understand this amazing career opportunity.
“I am not sure there is ever a good time to leave a club where I felt settled and was playing the best football of my career to date. I know many players talk of their desire to join the club of their boyhood dreams, but I can honestly say, this is my dream come true.
“I am well aware that I would not be at the level I am today were it not for firstly Southampton and then Spurs standing by me during some of the tougher times and affording me the environment and support they have.
“Tottenham will always be in my heart and I’m sure that this season will be a successful one for them. I am now looking forward to the next exciting chapter in my life, playing football for Real Madrid."

According to Marca it is after all 91M. I know what you'll say, it's Marca blabla, but initially they reported it was a world record of 99M. So if they are going with the less scandalous, cheaper version (the 91M) now, there's gotta be some truth to that. Or maybe it's just my wishful thinking, I don't know, I'm desperate at this point

Maybe 8m in variables are not included. It's a scandalous amount, either 91 or 99.

Gareth Bale will be presented as a Real Madrid player at the Bernabeu at 1200 BST on Monday, subject to passing a medical.

after all this it would be quite amusing if he failed his medical...

Keep calm man. It's all media drivel. Turn off Twitter for a few hours.

I'd piss my pants of laughter if that actually happened.

It's crazy money either way. But I'd rather he didn't break Ronaldo's record. Makes us look like...lesser fools, I guess?

Bale to Madrid for 91 million?

Perez is so stubborn for no reason...
