Gareth Bale will celebrate his hugely successful campaign with Tottenham by signing a new contract worth ￡130,000 a week.
Wales international Bale became the first Spurs player since Jurgen Klinsmann nearly two decades ago to score 20 league goals in a season when he hit the winner against Southampton on Saturday.
The PFA’s player of the year, young player of the year and Football Writers’ player of the year will gain a massive hike on his current deal which brings in a reported ￡75,000 a week.
Tottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas has insisted the jewel in the White Hart Lane crown will stay at the club irrespective of whether or not they qualify for next season’s Champions League.
Villas-Boas wants to build a squad around Bale which is capable of winning the Premier League but Tottenham’s resolve to keep the 23-year-old will be tested in the close-season by offers from Real Madrid and possibly Manchester United which could match their valuation of ￡70million.Cardiff-born Bale is believed to be happy to stay at Spurs, with the practicality of uprooting his young family a major downside to a move elsewhere.By signing a new deal for a third successive summer he remains under contact for four years.
