Bale to be bench option for Spurs

Bale was a major doubt for the game having missed the last seven weeks with a back injury, but he came through a light training session on Friday and will train on Saturday in the hope that he will be fit for Sunday, and the club's Champions League clash with AC Milan three days later. "I'm hopeful he will be fit for Milan. He did a bit with the fitness coaches this morning and he will come out and train with us tomorrow," Redknapp told talkSPORT. "I'm really looking to give him half an hour at Wolverhampton on Sunday. I will put him on the bench and if I can get him into the game for half an hour and give him one gallop before the big race and maybe get him out on Wednesday. "He is not capable of playing 90 minutes on Sunday, I don't think, but if we can get a run into him we might be able to get him ready for Wednesday then."
