Gareth Bale’s days as a Real Madrid player are set to come to an end this summer after Los Blancos manager Zinedine Zidane revealed the club are working on finding the Welshman a new club.
Beijing Guoan are keen on signing the three-time Champions League winner and are reportedly willing to offer him a contract worth a staggering £1.2million-a-week.
Spurs are also said to hold an interest in re-signing the Wales international, who left the club in the summer of 2013 for a then world-record fee of £85million.
And Allen hopes the former Southampton man passes up the lucrative offer from Beijing in favour of a move back to north London.
“I think it has all been handled pretty horrifically,” Allen said during an appearance on talkSPORT.
“So much has been made public about the fall out with Zidane. I think Real Madrid have handled in very poorly.
“I don’t think he should be going to China.
“I think there are so many possible suitors in European football and even Premier League football – I’d love to see him come back to the Premier League.
“I sat down with him and his family when he came to Spurs many years ago, and I said Spurs was the platform for him to go on and do anything he wanted, to fulfil his dreams. He bought into that and he came to Spurs.
“I’d say the exact same thing today. This is not the same club he joined those years aback, Tottenham Hotspur are up among the top teams in European football.
“Come back to Tottenham, Gareth. That’s my message to him, absolutely.”
Bale’s agent Jonathan Barnett was fuming with the manner in which Zidane announced his client’s impending departure, branding it ‘disrespectful’.
Zidane quickly hit back at Barnett, saying: “I have not disrespected anyone. The club is dealing with his departure. Period.
“The other day [against Bayern], Gareth didn’t play because he didn’t want to.
“He said the club was trying to negotiate his departure, and he didn’t want to play because of that.”
Zizou later added: “[His] situation is known by everyone and will not change. The club is going to do what they have to do with him.”
