Bale for official web site of Tottenham said:
"I would like to thank everyone at the Club, the Chairman, Board, staff, coaches and players - and most of all the fantastic fans who I hope will understand this amazing career opportunity.
"I am not sure there is ever a good time to leave a club where I felt settled and was playing the best football of my career to date. I know many players talk of Their desire to join the club of Their boyhood dreams, but I can honestly say, this is my dream come true.
