The trio appear to be the main clubs in the race to sign Champions League final hero Gareth Bale, who has admitted: "I need to be playing every week."
Fresh from playing a starring role in Real Madrid's Champions League final triumph on Saturday, Gareth Bale took the chance to send a message to the club as the LaLiga giants celebrated La Decimotercera. "I need to be playing week in, week out...I'll have to sit down with my agent," he told reporters in Kiev, in the process opening the door to a summer transfer after five years at the Bernabéu.
Manchester United
On Monday, the UK front pages led with talk of long-term admirers Manchester United's interest in signing Bale, with the Red Devils allegedly ready to offer 140 million euros for the Welshman and pay him net wages of over 30 million euros a year - almost three times his salary at Real.
On Tuesday, meanwhile, the Independent claimed that the 28-year-old's former club, Tottenham Hotspur, have joined the race for his services.

A return to North London would reportedly involve Bale taking a pay cut, with the 'Cardiff Express' maintaining his current 11m-a-season wages but forced to give up additional income (which adds up to an annual 14m, says the Independent) received through commercial deals shared with Real Madrid. Nevertheless, Spurs are said to be confident that he can be swayed by the prospect of far more game time than he has been enjoying in Madrid.
Bayern Munich
Meanwhile, Bayern Munich are the other major European club to have shown significant interest in Bale.
In April, AS revealed that the Bundesliga champions would be willing to dig deep to secure the Wales star's signature, with the player hardly shied away from a potential switch to Bavaria, admitting that it was "an honour" to be linked with Bayern." However, question marks surround the Germans' ability to meet Real's likely asking price of up to 150m euros.
