Jose Mourinho has ruled out Manchester United making a move for Real Madrid star Gareth Bale this summer.
Bale has been a long-term target for United, who tried to hijack his £85million move to the Spanish giants in 2013 by offering £100m for him.
United have again been linked with a move for Wales star Bale but, ahead of their meeting with Real in San Jose on Sunday, Mourinho ruled out any bid for him.
After branding a move for Bale’s Real team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo as “mission impossible”, Mourinho said Bale was never a target for him.
