Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho believes the club cannot meet the financial request of Real Madrid in respect to Gareth Bale's departure.
The Daily Star has revealed that s source close to the Portuguese confirmed that the Red Devils want to sign the player but they may not have the financial resources to do it.
The future of the Welshman remains unclear but the two goals he scored in the Champions League final saw his market value skyrocket to more than £150million.
Asked where he will play his football next season, the player said last week: "I need to be playing week in, week out and that has not happened this season.
"I had an injury five, six weeks in but I've been fit ever since. I have to sit down with my agent in the summer and discuss it.
"Obviously I was very disappointed not to start the game, I felt I deserved it but the manager makes the decisions. The best I have been doing is to come on and make an impact, I certainly did.
"It has to be the best goal in a Champions League final, there is no bigger stage. I am just happy to get the win
"It is a team game but when you are a substitute, it is a game of more than 11 players. I made an impact.
"We know what we have achieved and how good we have been. The league was disappointing but we won the Champions League. It turns out to be a great season."
