Real Madrid Transfer Rumors: Gareth Bale £99.5 Million Bid Rejected, Zlatan Ibrahimovic Transfer Update and More

Sergio Ramos and David De Gea continue to dominate the headlines for Real Madrid, but other transfer targets emerged on Wednesday. From Zlatan Ibrahimovic to an astronomical bid, below is all the latest transfer gossip surrounding Los Galacticos.

Gareth Bale

According to Spanish outlet Cadena COPE (via Metro), Manchester United rekindled their interest in Gareth Bale and submitted £99.5 million bid for the Welshman. Per the report, however, Real Madrid have rejected the bid.

One thing is certain: Florentino Perez is a man of his word.

"We would never listen to any offers for Bale, no matter what the bid was," the Real Madrid president said in March (via Marca). "He is a unique player who has already given so much to the team. He is the key to the club's future, just like I cannot imagine a future without Cristiano Ronaldo."

Zlatan Ibrahimovic

What about a future with Zlatan Ibrahimovic?

According to Sport, the Swedish international is on Real Madrid's radar. Perez traveled to Qatar to meet with Emir Al Thani and gauge the interest of a potential transfer. PSG rejected Ibrahimovic's request to revise his contract. Per the report, there is interest in accelerating his departure.

Newly appointed manager Rafael Benitez expressed the need to acquire a true No. 9 to incorporate in his system. No other player would fit that description better than Ibrahimovic.

Kiko Casilla

All the goalkeeper talk surrounds De Gea, but it's Kiko Casilla that will sign with Madrid. According to a report from Cadena COPE (via Managing Madrid), Casilla will join from Espanyol for €3 million.
