Gareth Bale has arrived in Spain, landing in Málaga at 13:00 CET at a private airport in the city. From there he travelled by taxi to Marbella, where he will wait for the final details of his transfer to Real Madrid to be resolved. Los Blancos aim to confirm his signing in the coming hours.

Bale flew to southern Spain in a private jet, and it is thought that he was accompanied by his family and his agent. The 24-year-olds arrival in the country bears out earlier comments made by Tottenham Hotspur manager André Villas-Boas, who had admitted that he did not expect the Wales international to be seen at White Hart Lane for Spurs Premier League match against Swansea on Sunday.
The player is no stranger to Marbella, where he has been spotted on more than one occasion. His next flight is set to take him from Marbella to Madrid. The Santiago Bernabéu directors box has been prepared for his presentation, and his move to Real Madrid is imminent.
