Report: Manchester United to launch £90m bid for Real Madrid's Gareth Bale

Manchester United have expressed an interest in submitting a new bid for Gareth Bale, according to reports.

The Red Devils were claimed to have failed with attempts to sign the Welsh winger from Real Madrid during the summer transfer window.

According to the Daily Mirror, Man Utd plan to make a new attempt in January, with a prospective world-record £90m bid on the cards.

Bale has scored 30 goals in 63 appearances for Real following his move from Tottenham Hotspur in 2013, but his relationship with the club's fans is said to be strained.
