Tottenham have slapped a £150 MILLION price-tag on star winger Gareth Bale.
The Sunday Mirror says Manchester City, who face Spurs in a title clash at the Etihad Stadium today, have made discreet enquiries about the 22-year-old Wales international winger.
Even cash-rich City were staggered by the asking price, which would shatter the current £80million world-record transfer of Cristiano Ronaldo from neighbours Manchester United to Real Madrid.
Rumours had surfaced that Bale has a £50 million buy-out clause in his current contract and City were ready to steel a march on a host of European club by meeting that asking price in the summer.
The Stellar Group, who represent Bale, have confirmed that there is no escape clause.
