Tottenham star Gareth Bale may never recapture the form that saw him earn him what was then a world-record £86million move to Real Madrid, according to his former team-mate Darren Bent.
The Welsh winger put in some scintillating displays for Spurs in his first stint at the club between 2007 and 2013, catching the eye of LaLiga giants Real.
Tottenham lost one of their star players seven years ago but he returned to north London this summer on a season-long loan after being frozen out in the Spanish capital.
