Bale Set At 94 Million Pounds

Tottenham standout, Gareth Bale, is set to complete a transfer to switch to Real Madrid sometime early next week.  The proposed fee of 94 million pounds would overtake Cristiano Ronaldo's 80 million pound move from Manchester United to Real Madrid as the world record transfer fee. According to the Spanish press, Real Madrid seems confident of making the announcement of the completed transfer on next Tuesday morning.  

However, the real magnitude of this transfer would be seen in it's aftermath.  If Spurs were to make this move they would be in a position to give there already highly talented squad an injection of pure class. With links to possibly signing Erik Lamela (AS Roma) and Fabio Coentrao (Real Madrid).  

When Spur's boss Andre Villas-Boas was interviewed he responded as saying, ""Coentrao and Lamela, both great players but that's all I can say," said the Spurs manager.

Already with the additions of Roberto Soldado (£26 million), Paulinho (£17 million), Étienne Capoue (£9  million) and Nacer Chadli (£7 million) Tottenham have reloaded on talent in order to keep up with the moves of Manchester City, Liverpool and Arsenal.

With the transfer market not closing for another week, we could witness one of the largest signing sprees in recent EPL history.  If Bale leaves, WHICH HE WILL, here are the moves Tottenham should make with the available funds.

Round 1 EPL - Monday's Fixture - Pitch-360's Game of the Week

Manchester United v Everton FC - Old Trafford - * GAME OF THE WEEK* Manchester United - With Robin Van Persie jumping into the starting 11 along side Wayne Rooney, goals should be aplenty.  The two combined to score 57 goals last year which is almost half as many United tallied all of last year.  Ferguson will also look to the other major addition of the summer, Borussia Dortmund ace Shinji Kagawa, to have an instant impact.  However, the reoccurring problem of the health of the defense seems to have come up again.  Phil Jones, Chris Smalling and Johnny Evans all have picked up knocks and are reported to miss the match as well as Darren Fletcher.  This coupled with the rumors of winger Nani possibly moving on before the transfer window closes could see him start on the bench along side youngster Nick Powell.  Even with these set backs, the depth of Fergie's side shows why they are favorites to claim yet another EPL title.
