Bale, 31, scored 11 goals in just ten Premier League starts at Spurs but was hardly used by Jose Mourinho before the Portuguese boss was axed in April.
He still has a year remaining on his mega £600,000-a-week Madrid contract but Los Blancos are desperate to get him off the wage bill.
Spanish outlet ABC have claimed today that Bale is preparing to quit football at the end of Euro 2020.
It stated the ex-Southampton ace wanted to hang up his boots and attempt to forge a career as a pro golfer.
However, his agent Jonathan Barnett shot those rumours out of the water when asked about them by talkSPORT.
He said: “Sorry, I don’t speak about rubbish reporting.”
Bale finished the season on a high by scoring twice in the win at Leicester to seal Spurs’ place in Europe.
And he confirmed afterwards he would not be revealing his plans for next season until after his duty with Wales has finished this summer.

He said: “I know what I’m doing but it will just cause chaos if I say anything.
“I am not thinking about anything, all I’m concentrating on now is obviously finishing this season off strong.
“We meet up straight away for the Euros and I’m not thinking about anything else other than Wales.”
