The Wales international was heavily linked with a move to Old Trafford all summer.

Jose Mourinho publicly revealed his desire to sign the 28-year-old winger, despite calling the deal ‘mission impossible’.

However, Bale responded to United’s interest, saying he has no need to leave Real.

And according to The Sun, the Red Devils will go back in for Bale next summer after having an enquiry snubbed in recent months.

They say Mourinho is desperate to land a world-class winger and the former Tottenham man tops his wish list.

The Sun reckon United are eyeing a £90m-plus deal to bring Bale to Old Trafford.

Real are open to agreeing a deal at the end of the season, with the La Liga giants ready to put faith in Isco and Marco Asensio.

Bale had a tough season last time out, with injuries hampering the winger’s progress.

He started just 17 La Liga games under Zinedine Zidane last season, spending a chunk of the campaign sidelined.

United made four key signings before the transfer window shut last week.

Romelu Lukaku, Nemanja Matic and Victor Lindelof all moved to Old Trafford, while Zlatan Ibrahimovic returned to United after being released.
