Except that Bale and Madrid have no leverage here. Levy has a set price. If Madrid won't meet it, then Bale doesn't go. If Bale refuses to show up for training and games, he loses his wages and rots on the bench. Sure Spurs will lose some money but not nearly as much as Bale and his agent stand to lose.
