Gareth Bale has had TWO offers from China as clubs scramble to get his signature, writes John Cross in Washington.
Chinese Super League club Beijing Guoan have already made an approach and are willing to pay Bale £1m-a-week.
But, incredibly, Jiangsu Suning are also interested in signing Bale and reports in China are suggesting they are now in pole position to sign him.
Real Madrid star Bale is being ruthlessly frozen out by Zinedine Zidane who did not include the 30-year-old in a match day squad to face Bayern Munich the US tour and admitted “it would be better” if he leaves.
Bale is on £650,000-a-week at Madrid, has three years left on his contract and there is also interest from Bayern Munich.
There have also been strong links of a potential swap deal involving Neymar with Bale possibly going to Paris Saint Germain.
Wales forward Bale has won four Champions League titles in six years at the Bernabeu but his strained relationship with Zidane means they are desperate to offload him.
On the Welshman, Zidane said: "We hope he leaves soon. It would be best for everyone. We are working on his transfer to a new team.
"I have nothing personal against him, but there comes a time where things are done because they must be done."
Real Madrid are due to play Arsenal in the International Champions Cup in Washington on Tuesday with Zidane facing the media for a pre-match press conference on Monday night.
Bale’s agent Jonathan Barnett has branded Zidane a “disgrace” for his treatment of the player but also insisted that he could stay at Madrid.
