But any talk of a transfer has been quashed, with Jonathan Barnett insisting that his client wants to see out the remainder of his career at the Bernabeu saying “he was nowhere near leaving”.

“He is very happy at Real Madrid and hopefully he’ll stay for the rest of his career,” he added. “He’s loving it there and things are going well for him.”

Bale’s £83.5million transfer to Real from Tottenham remains the world record fee for a player and Barnett believes, everything considered, he will remain the most expensive player for some time. “You have (Cristiano) Ronaldo, who is getting to the end of his career, and (Lionel) Messi as well,” he added, speaking at Soccerex in Manchester.

“In Spain they have clauses which come out and state how you much you have to pay so at the moment he is the most valuable and it will be a while before someone breaks it.”said Jonathan Barnett Bale’s agent.
