Bale passes Real medical

Gareth Bale has passed his medical at Real Madrid and will get his first taste of life as a galactico this afternoon when he is presented at the Bernabeu.

Bale flew to the Spanish capital this morning after Real ended over two months of speculation, gossip and negotiation last night by announcing they had agreed a deal – thought to be worth a world-record €100m - with Spurs for the 24-year-old.
