Rio Ferdinand urges Manchester United to sign Gareth Bale

By , Football Editor
Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand calls on the Red Devils to sign Real Madrid attacker Gareth Bale at the end of the season.

Rio Ferdinand has urged his former club Manchester United to move for Real Madrid attacker Gareth Bale this summer.

On Thursday afternoon, Ferdinand took part in a Q&A on Twitter, where he was asked a number of questions about his career and former club Man United.

One of those questions concerned who the 37-year-old would bring to Old Trafford at the end of the season if he had the chance, and Bale was the player picked out by the former England international.

Bale, 26, joined Real Madrid from Tottenham Hotspur for a world-record fee in 2013, but has been strongly linked with a return to England despite his impressive form in Spain.
