Real Open to Bale Contract Extension
Thursday, August 4
According to AS, Bale's agent Jonathan Barnett has already started negotiations with Los Blancos regarding a contract extension, adding two years to his current deal, which runs until 2019.
His salary could reportedly increase to €10 million per year, making him the team's second-highest paid player, behind Cristiano Ronaldo.
The 27-year-old joined Real in the summer of 2013 and enjoyed a fine first season in the Spanish capital. His 2014-15 campaign was a bit of a disappointment, but Bale bounced back nicely last season, playing a crucial role in the side's UEFA Champions League triumph.
Per WhoScored.com, he scored 19 goals and added 10 assists in just 23 La Liga appearances, justifying his massive transfer fee of £90 million in total, per the Daily Mail's Charles Sale.
His fine form and superb performances during the UEFA Euro 2016 tournament all but silenced persistent transfer rumours linking him with a return to the Premier League, with Manchester United most frequently mentioned as a potential destination, per El Confidencial (h/t Daily Star's Colin Harvey).
Such a move never seemed likely, and a new and improved deal would make Bale's commitment to the project in the Spanish capital even stronger.

Billy Bob Thornton Denies Sleeping With Amber Heard

The domestic violence case between Amber Heard and Johnny Depp is getting messier by the minute, and now they're dragging other people in the midst of their conflict. Depp apparently accused his wife of cheating on him with Billy Bob Thornton back in 2015, but the actor has completely denied all allegations. 'Our Brand Is Crisis' star Billy Bob Thornton has branded the suggestion that he slept with Amber Heard during the production of their latest movie 'London Fields' as 'completely false' according to reports from TMZ . The story is that he 'never socialized with Amber off set, other than a cast dinner', and adds that he had no on-set contact with her either, other than in a professional capacity. Of course, in the movie, their character's are close; it follows the story of a manipulative young woman named Nicola Six (Heard) who strings along three men including a writer named Samson Young (Thornton) in a bid to bring about her own murder.
