The former Tottenham player has been enjoying some fine form in Spain recently that has seen his popularity at Real Madrid spike. With the level Bale is currently playing at, he's only attracted more interest from abroad.
With five goals in his last five games, including a stunning brace against Celta Vigo, the Welshman has sent a compelling case to Zinedine Zidane as to why he deserves to start against Liverpool.
If he's named in the starting XI, Manchester United will have a front row seat to watch Bale perform on club football's biggest stage. All eyes will be on Madrid's No.11, particularly those of Jose Mourinho, who will be weighing up bringing the star winger to his club for when the Premier League kicks off again.
