Whilst I love Lloris and Kane, it's surprising you think they are bigger than Bale in commercial appeal right now. Dele and Son featured in a big Adidas Campaign last year FYI. I appreciate we have a stronger commerical relationship with Nike, but I don't really understand your argument to be honest.
He would raise our profile and generate extended commerical opportunities. He would sell more shirts to our international fanbase.
Absolutely.
We actually have surprisingly few "celebrity" players in that regard. I'd say the one player we have with significant commercial appeal is Son, because he's a superstar in South Korea which is a big market.
Gareth would certainly raise us a few notches in that regard.
