Real Madrid forward Gareth Bale is set to travel to London on Friday to complete his loan to Tottenham Hotspur. The deal for Wales international Bale, 31, to rejoin Spurs on loan from Real Madrid is still being negotiated with no final touches being agreed upon.
Negotiations between the clubs are progressing positively and as long as they are concluded in the same manner, Bale will travel to England.
Bale is currently training in isolation at Madrid and awaiting the outcome of negotiations.
The Welshman originally joined Spurs from Southampton in 2007 before moving to the Spanish giants for a then world record £85m in 2013. He has gone on to score more than 100 goals for Real and won four Champions Leagues.

Bale's agent, Jonathan Barnett, told BBC Wales Sport on Wednesday that talks over a move were "slowly progressing".
Barnett said: "Gareth is closer to leaving Madrid than at any time in the last seven years. We are still negotiating. We shall see how it goes."
Spurs manager Jose Mourinho refused to speculate on the discussions saying: "He is a Real Madrid player and I don't comment on players from other clubs. I have to respect that. It's better not to speak.
"I tried to sign him for Real Madrid, which was not possible to do during my time there. But the president followed my instinct and my knowledge and the season I left he brought Gareth to the club. It's not a secret, even Gareth knows that."
