Tottenham have agreed a fee with Southampton for their prodigious left-back Gareth Bale.


Spurs are long-term admirers of the 17-year-old Welshman, who is highly sought after by much of the Premiership.


Manchester United, in particular, have been mooted as a possible destination for Bale, but Spurs have made the first, decisive move.


Bale is still short of 50 appearances for Saints but has consistently caught the eye, not least with his prowess from a dead ball, and at 16 years and 315 days became the youngest player to represent Wales against Trinidad & Tobago last May.


Reports this week suggested Saints became resigned to Bale's exit after missing out on promotion to the Premiership via the play-offs.

He was eye catching against us last year, no surprise that someone has made a move for him.

I was suprised to see that Spurs had the leading bid.. Was thinking Man Utd or Arsenal would of made a move by now.

But Spurs are in need for a Left-Back 'cos that Lee-Pyo is a joke.. Wonder how much the sale was for.

He has been making a name for himself this season.

Good choice to go to Spurs. Might not get much first team action if he went to Man United or Arsenal, He would just be put back out on loan maybe..

yeah not worth 10 million, ridiclous money

I haven't seen much of him, but I still think we could of got better for £10million. I'm just happy we finally got a decent (well, if he lives up to all the hype) left-footed left-back.

at least he has made the right move, cause he is more or less guarenteed first team football at the lane so it's all good.

10 million was defo too much, i'd say 3-4 at the most.

As A Soton Fan I Think This IS Getting Rediculous. KEEP THE PLAYERS INSTEAD OF SELLING THEM!
