Real Madrid are allegedly prepared to hand Gareth Bale at least another season at the Bernabeu.

Before and during the last two transfer windows, Bale has been heavily linked with an exit having fallen down the pecking order at the Spanish giants.

For a number of weeks, it has been claimed that club officials were eager to get the Wales international off the wage bill in order to make room for new signings.

However, according to The Sun, Los Blancos are happy to keep the 30-year-old for at least another campaign, taking into consideration the financial implications of the coronavirus pandemic.

The report hints that Real are content with heading into the next campaign without having made a high-profile addition.

The La Liga side also intend to continue with the redevelopment of their stadium, another factor in the alleged decisions over their transfer plans.
