Even as Welsh striker Gareth Bale may be trying for a Real Madrid move, his club chairman Daniel Levy is refusing to hold any further talks with the player on the issue after ruling out that he will not be sold this summer regard less of whatever Real may offer.

According to the Mirror, while the football world was stunned by the lengths to which Real are going to get their man, Levy has already dismissed Madrid's offer of 51 million pounds plus Angel Di Maria and Fabio Coentrao, totalling 95million pounds.

The Spurs chief is desperate to reach the Champions League and believes they have a much better chance with Bale in the side, the report said.

However, the report added that while Tottenham were claiming dirty tricks by Real last week, Bale's camp are angry that Levy is reneging on a promise made to their man last year.
