TOTTENHAM boss Martin Jol has started a bidding war for Southampton whizzkid Gareth Bale.
Dutchman Jol has stolen a march on Arsenal and Manchester United by tabling a £6m bid for the 17-year-old Welsh left back. Jol is desperate for a new left back in January as Benoit Assou-Ekotto and Lee Young Pyo have struggled defensively.
Spurs are hoping to tempt Southampton into selling even though they have publicly said they did not want to part with the player in January.
