"There are several possible outcomes for Bale, but the one move that he should not make, under any circumstances, is to sign for Louis van Gaal, the Manchester United manager," Cascarino told The Times.
"Van Gaal could fly to Spain to tell him that he is the missing piece in the Dutchman's jigsaw, that United need Bale to function properly, and that with him, they will be the attacking force of old. And Bale should ignore him.
"There is no way that the former Tottenham Hotspur winger could thrive in a Van Gaal system. Look at how talented attackers have struggled under the former Holland coach.
"Old Trafford has become a graveyard for flair.
"The experience of Ángel Di María is particularly instructive. The former Real winger is an extremely gifted player, but in his final months at Old Trafford, he was a lost soul, playing as if confused and insecure.
"This is what the cautious Van Gaal system does to attackers. It subdues them and negates their attributes.
"Di María joined United from Real as an outstanding player and left a broken man. There is the real risk that Bale would be ruined if he also left Madrid for Old Trafford."
