AVB: Bale deserves a new Spurs contract

Andre Villas-Boas is keen for Gareth Bale to end speculation about his future by signing a new contract with Tottenham.

After a breakthrough season, Bale is set to be rewarded with fresh terms which are rumoured to be worth £130,000 to the Welshman. His current deal runs through to 2016, but the Spurs boss and fans want to see him agree a new contract at the Lane.

Bale’s form this season has meant a constant link with a move to Real Madrid, Barcelona and Manchester United – AVB is right that a new contract would go some way to ending this speculation, regardless of whether we qualify for Champions League football or not.

“It would be good for him (to sign a new contract),” AVB told today’s press conference.

“I think he deserves it for the season he’s had.

“Obviously we could put to bed every single speculation that’s coming out.

“It would be excellent and I think a reward for what he has achieved this season.”
