A LEAKED image appears to show Gareth Bale is booked in for a round of golf with Daniel Levy on Friday.
The Real Madrid star, 31, is expected to land in London on Friday to complete his loan move to Tottenham.
The image that appeared to show the booking went viral on social media
Fans went wild believing that the leaked image all-but confirm the Welshman’s transfer to Spurs.
And many said they were also booking tee times, in the hope of catching a glimpse of The Golfer.
The photograph appeared to show Bale – who was relentlessly mocked in Spain for his love of golf – will play at Hadley Wood on Friday.
And he will apparently be joined by Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy and chief scout Steve Hitchin.
After the image did the rounds on social media, one fan said: “He’s going to be announced while playing golf isn’t he.”
Another added: “You could not write this!”
One Twitter user said: “Gareth Bale and Daniel Levy playing golf tomorrow at Hadley Wood. Promising signs for the Spurs fans.”
And one predicted: “We’re going to get a Gareth Bale playing golf compilation as an announcement tweet.”
However, a social media post later made by the golf club seemed to suggest the leaked image was a hoax.
Hadley Wood Golf Club wrote: “Never had so many Friday afternoon tee time requests. #WeWish.”
Bale has already said goodbye to his Madrid team-mates ahead of his return to North London.

The Welshman – who has a golf course at his home in Spain – has reportedly passed his medical.
He is set to join his former club on a season-long loan in a deal worth £20million.
Golf-fanatic Bale left Spurs for Real Madrid for a then-world record £85million in 2013.
He has since scored more than 100 goals won four Champions League titles.
But Madrid are keen to get the out-of-favour star’s huge £650,000-per-week wages off the book.
It is understood the Spurs will pay 50 per cent of his wages – with Real covering the other half.
