Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho 'waiting for Gareth Bale response'

Mourinho 'waiting for Bale response'

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has reportedly queried whether Real Madrid will entertain any offers for Gareth Bale this summer.

United have been frequently linked with a move for Bale, and the Welshman appeared to suggest that he was open to leaving the Bernabeu after starting the Champions League final on the bench.

However, on Thursday, boss Zinedine Zidane left his role at Real, which would seemingly strengthen the possibility of Bale remaining with the European champions next season.

According to ESPN, Mourinho wants to discover if the Spanish giants will give consideration to parting ways with the attacker, regardless of who is appointed as Zidane's replacement.

An offer upward of £120m has been suggested, with Bale still having four years remaining on his contract.
