It's happening....

[The Lone Gunman]

Sounds to me like his agent's stalling, hoping for a better offer from elsewhere. Gotta get that last fat Bale cheque.

Just give him a percentage of the shirts and get on with it mun!

I’d be very surprised if he hasn’t already had better offers from elsewhere.

Putting the blame on the agent is naive to say the least. If Bale wanted to play for City and was already 100% committed to the idea, he’d have said so by now. But he hasn’t.
