Tottenham offered to make Gareth Bale among the highest paid players in the game to keep him away from Real Madrid.
The Mail on Sunday says Bale landed in Spain last night to prepare to sign for Real Madrid - but Tottenham and the Spanish giants are still thrashing out the terms of the proposed world record move.
Tottenham have attempted to persuade Bale to stay, and offered to smash their wage structure and off him a club record £200,000 per week new deal to stay.
But the winger is determined to move and become a Champions League contender.
