Agent: 'Gareth Bale worth at least as much as Neymar'

The agent of Real Madrid winger Gareth Bale has suggested that it will take a world-record fee to prise his client away from the Bernabeu.

"He's worth at least the €222m (£200m) paid for Neymar. Gareth is very happy with Real Madrid. He loves Madrid," Barnett told Tuttosport. "Gareth doesn't need Cristiano Ronaldo to leave. Bale is already a star at Real Madrid. I remember the pen Florentino Perez gave me, he's a great gentleman, I always carry it with me. "Bale was close to signing for an Italian club, but Spurs didn't accept the offer."He's happy in Madrid now, although things can change quickly in football, however I know that no Italian club can afford to buy him at this point."
