Tottenham have re-signed Wales forward Gareth Bale from Spanish champions Real Madrid on a season-long loan.

Bale, 31, left Spurs for a then world record £85m in 2013 and went on to score more than 100 goals and win four Champions Leagues with Real.

"It's nice to be back. It's such a special club to me. It's where I made my name," said Bale.

"Hopefully, now I can get some match fitness, get under way and really help the team and, hopefully, win trophies."

He added: "I always thought when I did leave that I would love to come back."

Nice to see . Even if it's only for one year, it'll be great to see him back at the club where he first rose to stardom.

Let's hope he's been keeping up the motivational headdesking during his time away .

Motivational headdesking?

Anyway, this is an interesting move and I hope it bears fruit for Spurs. Spurs have a good bunch of players to go along with him, especially Lloris, Kane, and Son, so... COME ON YOU SPURS!!
