The Sunday Mirror reports that United are ready to test Tottenham’s resolve to keep the 23-year-old.
United believe Bale would prefer a move to Old Trafford over a move to Spanish giants Real Madrid.
Spurs boss Andre Villas-Boas has insisted that Bale will not be sold this summer.
Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy values Bale at £60million and are ready to hand the winger a new £170,000-a-week contract.
United are reportedly ready to include the likes of Anderson and Nani in a bid for Bale.
