Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy 'put his money where his mouth is' to sign Gareth Bale, says agent Jonathan Barnett
Gareth Bale's agent has praised Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy as the Welsh winger closes in on a return to the club.
Bale is expected to finalise his move back to Spurs on Friday, joining on a season-long loan, with left-back Sergio Reguilon making the same journey on a permanent switch.
Spurs are understood to have agreed a deal worth less than £15million for Bale, including wages and loan fees, with Real Madrid paying the majority of his wages.
Bale's agent, Jonathan Barnett, has praise Levy for securing a deal for Bale and is looking forward to his client being happy again.
"When Tottenham came calling it was where he wanted to be," Barnett told the Telegraph.
"It is good for Gareth and obviously I hope it's good for Tottenham. My main concern is Gareth and hopefully he will get some happiness back in his life."
He added: "He [Levy] has stuck his neck out. He's done bloody well. You have got to give him credit and admire his guts. He has put his money where his mouth is.
"Gareth is the most successful footballer ever to leave these shores and maybe even the most successful British footballer ever. You are talking about someone who has achieved everything."
